Andrey Slavov Toshev (Bulgarian: Андрей Славов Тошев; 16 April 1867 – 10 January 1944) was Prime Minister of Bulgaria in 1935.
[1][2] Appointed by Tsar Boris III, Toshev was chosen for his unflinching loyalty in the uncertainty following the counter coup by Boris loyalists against the government of Zveno that had assumed power in a coup the previous year.
He headed a purely civilian cabinet after a period of military rule and was, in effect, a puppet of the Tsar.
At that time, it was discovered that Damyan Velchev had slipped back into the country — presumably with the intention of conspiring against the king — and Toshev was replaced by Georgi Kyoseivanov.
[5] Toshev also served in diplomatic roles as the Bulgarian ambassador to Serbia from 1909 to 1913,[6] in which capacity he helped bring about the formation of the Balkan League.
