Personally, what I find interesting is the combination of videos in You Tube with the comments provided below them by different people. These present the response to the content of the video and constitute a merger of various views and an initial point for discussion. In my opinion, the one that prevails is that which mentions two similar –at first sight- phrases, with completely different meaning though and basically different connotation, that is “Bulgarian Turks or Turkish Bulgarians” relating to implications of dominance connecting with origin. The issue of discrimination is a really a very sensitive one, affecting societies and working in the context of interaction between majority and minority population and the framework set by the state. That is also true for the ethnic Turks of Bulgaria, where discrimination has become common practice. This video depicts an evaluation of the situation with certain perspectives presented; in an overall account, this case more or less bears the same traits with any other case of minorities, nationalism and discrimination. There is acknowledgment of the situation, some are for (or have no problem) and others are against minority populations for various reasons, there are these that justify to an extent some sort of expression of prejudice and those that detest it and the state sustains the whole issue, either deliberately by aiming at future voters increasing or due to its dysfunctional policies and incompetence. Even if the pre-accession in EU stage, made the Bulgarian leadership to shift its policies, so as to fulfill the prerequisites, and minority populations more optimist for future developments, that proved to be a short-term period. As pin-pointed in the video “the official discourse of tolerance and equality is not followed by the practice”, instead there is a rise in xenophobia and intolerance. On that ground, the Bulgarian government unfolds its agenda, where no orientation to fighting such instances takes place. On the contrary, probably with the will to highlight the idea of state cohesion in terms of its composition, in the recent Bulgarian Census, no minority populations are reported and so no estimation on how many ethnic Turks live in Bulgaria. So, if officially the presence of ethnic Turks is not recorded, why talking about this minority and their rights in the first place?...
