For the Bulgarian composer, see Georgi Atanasov (composer).

Georgi Ivanov Atanasov (Bulgarian: Георги Иванов Атанасов; 25 July 1933 – 31 March 2022) was a Bulgarian politician and a leading member of the Bulgarian Communist Party who served as Prime Minister from 1986 to 1990. Atanasov supported the move to oust Todor Zhivkov as Chairman of the State Council, joining Petar Mladenov in leading the opposition. In November 1992, he was sentenced to ten years imprisonment for embezzlement, although he was pardoned in 1994.[1]

Atanasov died at 31 March 2022, at the age of 88[2][3][4] in Sofia.[citation needed]
