Cornelia Ninova’s people accuse the advisers from Dondukov 2 of lying
Krum Zarkov demanded an urgent congress and a change of BSP leadership
They spit on the presidential institution
–
Cornelia Ninova and the BSP leadership declared open war on President Rumen Radev and his team from Dondukov 2. Ugly attacks and insults accompanied the meeting of the National Council of the Positano party 20, members of the plenum admitted to Trud.
And they pointed out that Ninova and those close to her openly spoke against Radev and his advisers in the presidency.
“The presidential institution has crossed all boundaries. The attacks on Ninova are attacks on the party. The Secretary-General cannot release false documents. If it weren’t for us, they would be playing cards in the village of Trud, “Gechev said, referring to the home village of presidential adviser Nikolai Koprinkov. On Saturday, Presidential Secretary Dimitar Stoyanov showed on his Facebook page part of a document stating that our arms shipment was redirecting its final destination from the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan to Ukraine.
At the same time, Nadia Mladenova from the office of President Iliana Yotova reacted indignantly on Facebook, apparently on the occasion of another statement against Radev and Iliana Yotova. “I understand that some people like Stefan Burdzhev have started spitting at the presidential institution and lying shamelessly, not only at party meetings, but also on a national scale,” Mladenova wrote. Burdzhev is Deputy Minister of Agriculture.
During the plenary session, MP Krum Zarkov openly called for an urgent convening of a congress and the replacement of Cornelia Ninova.
“If we do not do this now immediately, convening a congress as soon as possible, if we appear in the same way with the same leader in another election, it will be a catastrophe,” Zarkov predicted.
“We are in a pre-election situation. And if we are the National Council of the BSP, we must consider what we are doing so that the BSP can perform better in these previous elections, and not worse, which is possible, despite the social policy, “said Krum Zarkov. He warned: “Whoever chooses the comfort of his current administrative status or his recent appointment over the future of the party will soon lose both.”
Despite a fragile quorum of 107 people, the plenum decided with 101 votes to give Ninova a mandate to conduct new negotiations with “We continue the change” to form a cabinet within this parliament. This time, however, no red lines have been drawn. No one announced what Rumen Gechev told Nova news as a condition for supporting a new BSP government, namely the resumption of negotiations with Gazprom. Ninova herself admitted that the situation with Gazprom’s gas has not been discussed.
Ninova received support from BSP ministers in Petkov’s current cabinet and some members of the parliamentary group. And criticism from the domestic opposition was silenced by remarks from Ninova’s supporters.
Attacks on the presidency and Rumen Radev and Iliana Yotova dominated the entire session, with statements that Ninova made Radev president. And in red groups began comments that the few around Ninova are now only interested in “keeping their salaries and ministerial appointments.”
At a press conference after the plenary session, Ninova was also asked whether Bulgaria exports arms to Ukraine, but did not answer journalists’ questions.
