With that, they marked the 120th anniversary of the death of this great ideologue – a synonym for the people’s struggle for freedom, who more than a century understood the world as a field for a cultural competition of nations. Goce Delcev was killed by the Turkish army on May 4, 1903 in the village of Banica, on the way to Ser.
