Timeline

1916

Dobri Marinov Dzhurov (Bulgarian: Добри Маринов Джуров; 5 January 1916 – 17 June 2002) was a Bulgarian politician and military leader.

1944

After the communist coup in September 1944, he began work at the Ministry of the Interior and later became an officer of the Bulgarian Army.

1962

He was the last Defense Minister of the People's Republic of Bulgaria from 1962 to 1990.

He participated in the resistance movement during the Second World War.

He was the commander of a guerrilla brigade.

He became the Minister of People's Defense of Bulgaria in 1962.

1968

He was responsible for Bulgaria's participation in the invasion of Czechoslovakia by Warsaw Pact troops in 1968.

1974

He had been a full member of the CPB since 1974.

1989

Dzhurov played a key role in the ousting of longtime Communist leader Todor Zhivkov in December 1989.

Although he and Zhivkov's relationship dated back to the resistance, he had grown increasingly disgusted with Zhivkov's behavior.

When he lent his support to the plot to oust Zhivkov, he was given the task of ensuring that Zhivkov would have no room to manoeuvre.

On 9 November, a day before a scheduled Politburo meeting, Dzhurov advised Zhivkov to resign.

He warned Zhivkov that the Politburo had lost confidence in him, and there were enough votes to remove him.

Zhivkov was caught unaware and tried to marshal support, to no avail.

Just before the meeting the next day, Dzhurov gave Zhivkov an ultimatum—unless he stepped down, the Politburo would not only vote to remove him, but have him executed.

Zhivkov realized he was at the end of his tether, and resigned.

He met his wife Elena in a guerrilla group.

They were married for 60 years.

They have three children:
