The deportations planned from old Bulgaria are suspended in March, while the convoys from the occupied territories of Thrace and Macedonia have already departed. The Vice-President of the Assembly, majority deputies, the Orthodox Church, and provincial notables intervene with the king and the government. The summonses already distributed in several Bulgarian cities are cancelled at the last moment. The Jews of the old kingdom will not be deported, but those from the occupied territories are.
