>>12952642I live in Bulgaria and in my town there’s a monument of “the soviet liberators who died for our liberation from the fascists”. The only soviet soldiers to die in Bulgaria during WW2 were 80 men from the soviet occupation forces who learned that a shipment of alcohol was comming to a train station and decided to rob it. They killed the guard who tried to stop them and went on with their plan. The alcohol in the train however was Methanol and they all poisoned themselves and died. Nowadays there are dozens of monuments portraying them as heroes who selflessly died for my country.
