Summary/Abstract: During the years of World War I, the United States emerged definitively as the world's leading Great Power. The Bulgarian government therefore took the right decision to open a Bulgarian Legation in Washington. The new initiative was necessitated by the sharply intensified anti-Bulgarian propaganda of the intelligence and propaganda services of Serbia and Greece in America after the Inter-Allied War. Thanks to the wise policy pursued by the first Minister Plenipotentiary Prof. Stefan Panaretov the efforts of the anti-Bulgarian campaign were minimized. Moreover, even when in the autumn of 1915. Bulgaria was forced to enter the world military conflict as part of the Central Powers led by Germany, the government of W. Wilson maintained official diplomatic relations between Washington and Sofia because the American political elite was convinced that Bulgaria was fighting not for the seizure of foreign territories but for the liberation of the forcibly separated part of our people in Macedonia and its reunification with the free part of the Motherland.
