| Popis: | Politički angažman Ivana Vanče Mihajlova koji namjeravamo ovdje izložiti nije isključivo vezan uz njegov boravak u NDH 1941. - 1944. Naprotiv, nemoguće je zaobići bogatstvo i raznolikost povijesnog iskustva u hrvatsko-bugarskim odnosima tijekom dugih desetljeća. Autonomistički rakurs lidera desnoga krila VMRO-a naišao je na plodno tlo u Zagrebu 1941. i podigao je tenzije između Carevine Bugarske i NDH unatoč deklariranoga savezništva. The friendship between Croatian nationalists and Macedonian emigrants dates from 1929. In that year, at the town of Banka by Sofia, the “Sofia Declaration” was signed by Croatian ustasha leaders Ante Pavelić and Gustav Perčec, and Georgij Kondov and Ivan Hadzev, members of the Macedonian National Committee for Emigrant Organizations. The signatories swore to “coordinate their legal activities to attain popular and national rights, political freedom, a full national sovereignty for Croatia and Macedonia.” At this time, Pavelić also met with Ivan Vančo Mihajlov in Sofia in order to establish cooperative ties between the Ustasha organization and the right wing of IMRO. In 1934 IMRO paid the price for improved relations between Yugoslavia and Bulgaria, and Bulgaria turned its back on Mihajlov. He decided to promote the Macedonian idea in exile. As far as his political program is concerned, there is no doubt that in the middle of 1928 Mihajlov rejected the notion of “autonomy” for Macedonia in favour of full independence. But what is specific and original in his program is that his idea of Macedonian independence does not imply Macedonian ethnic character. His ideas were not acceptable to Bulgarian nationalists and, more importantly, it cost him the support of IMRO which he at first whole-heartedly enjoyed. Correspondence between the Bulgarian right-wing nationalist Asen Kantardzijev and Mihajlov from 1943 clearly reveals that Mihajlov cannot become the leader of a Macedonian organization because he is deemed to have lost his Bulgarian outlook and point of origin. His decision not to return to Bulgaria in 1941 seems to prove that the rift between Mihajlov and Bulgarian political leaders was deep. The Ustasa government provided Mihajlov a safe haven in Zagreb between 1941-1944. He was in close contact with Pavelić and most likely had an influence on the latter’s politics. Even though it never developed into an incident of larger importance, there is no doubt that Mihajlov’s presence in Zagreb cast a shadow on relations between the Independent State of Croatia and the Empire of Bulgaria. To the Bulgarian government, it was unacceptable that the Macedonian question was being presented to Croatian public opinion through the autonomist filter of Mihajlov. But it seems that Mihajlov maintained contacts with the Bulgarian court in spite of his uncompromising attitude on the question of Bulgarian politics in Macedonia. In 1941 Mihajlov did not have the support of German or Italian diplomacy. Contacts between him and the German government in September of 1944 resulted in something that might be called an attempt to proclaim the independence of Macedonia. After a visit to Sofia and Skoplje which was in part financed by the Croatian ministry for foreign affairs, Mihajlov became convinced that such a plan was not realizable give the conditions prevailing at the time. |
