Summary/Abstract: After the Resolution of the Cominforms had been proclaimed on the 8th June 1948, a number of Stalin's adherents immigrated to Eastern European countries, in order to start their struggle against Tito`s regime. One of their destinations was Bulgaria. Publishing of the NAPRED journal which first issue appeared in May 1949, was one of various activities of Yugoslav emigrants. The authors of articles published in the journal glorified results of development of Soviet Union and other Eastern European states. The state of the Yugoslav economy was on the other side described as extremely bad, which was ascribed to Yugoslav betrayal and cooperation with Western imperialists. The use of repressive means against Stalin's followers in Yugoslavia was condemned rather strongly. The journal was published until 1954, when Bulgarian authorities, due to the beginning of normalization of Yugoslav–Soviet relations, decided to restrain the propaganda of Yugoslav political emigrants.
