    Bulgarian.  It was produced in village Oreshak, Troyan, from a little factory named " Balkan". It contains 40 pieces of cigarettes and the price was 5 leva( Bulgarian currency).

    Most likely Russian, but it could be Bulgarian or Serbian. I assume that Ukrainian is very similar to Russian. That alphabet is called "Cyrillic".
