General Robertson, US ACC Representative in Sofia, believes that the
Bulgarian Government's attitude toward Greece will become more
belligerent when the Bulgarian peace treaty has been signed and that

an outlet to the Aegean as a result of the formation of an autonomous
local government which, Robertson states, would seek union with
Bulgaria.

Georgiev has publicly denied every Greek charge of Bulgarian frontier
violationa and the organization of Greek partisan bands on Bulgarian
oil Georgiev has retaliated by accusing Greece of violations of
Bulgarian territory.
