Foundation

It was under the leadership of Dimitar Vlahov, Pavel Shatev, Georgi Zankov, Rizo Rizov, Vladimir PopTomov, Metodi Shatorov and Hristo Yankov. Its main object was to free the Macedonia within its geographical and economical borders and to create a new political entity which would become an equal member of the future Balkan Federative Republic. It was accepted as a partner in the Balkan Communist Federation and was sponsored directly from the Comintern, maintaining close links with the Bulgarian communist leader Georgi Dimitrov. He, as secret agent of GRU was responsible especially about the contacts with the IMRO (United).

Famous quotes containing the word foundation:

    “Surrealism is not a school of poetry but a movement of liberation.... A way of rediscovering the language of innocence, a renewal of the primordial pact, poetry is the basic text, the foundation of the human order. Surrealism is revolutionary because it is a return to the beginning of all beginnings.”
    —Octavio Paz (b. 1914)

    “No genuine equality, no real freedom, no true manhood or womanhood can exist on any foundation save that of pecuniary independence. As a right over a man’s subsistence is a power over his moral being, so a right over a woman’s subsistence enslaves her will, degrades her pride and vitiates her whole moral nature.”
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1907)

    “[The Settlement House] must be grounded in a philosophy whose foundation is on the solidarity of the human race, a philosophy which will not waver when the race happens to be represented by a drunken woman or an idiot boy.”
    —Jane Addams (1860–1935)
