Dimo Kazasov

Kazasov took active part in the 1923 coup d'état and from 1923 to 1924 he was minister of the railways, post offices and telegraphs.

In early 1934 he separated from Kimon Georgiev and his group left Zveno and joined Aleksandar Tsankov's National Social Movement.

At the beginning of World War II, he took active part in protection of Bulgarian Jews from deportation.

Kazasov took part in the 9 September coup d'état and was minister of propaganda in the second government of Kimon Georgiev (1944–1946).

After three-year absence from the political scene, in 1950 Kazasov was appointed chief director of the publishing houses, polygraphy and the trade with printed works.

This was a key office, formed during Valko Chervenkov's rule, whose purpose was to censor the press and book publishing in communist Bulgaria during the Stalinist period.
