Bulgarian participation in the Hungarian campaign, fighting alongside Soviet forces, formed part of the armistice obligation to contribute actively to the Allied war effort &#8212; and placed Bulgarian soldiers on the front lines of the final phase of the European war.<\/p>\n<p>Explore more of Bulgaria&#8217;s story on <strong><a
