As the population of Kruševo was two - thirds hellenised Vlachs and Patriarchist Slavs, this was a wise move. Despite these promises the insurgents flew Bulgarian flags everywhere and in many places the uprising did entail attacks on Muslim Turks and Albanians who themselves organised for self-defence.''
