GERB leader is personally negotiating in parliament for the first time in years, Petkov tried to bypass
The head of GERB signed a document saying that he will not govern with four parties Boyko Borisov and sent it to PP-DB. He did minutes before when his party was invited to speeches Kirill Petkov. They were quickly called for Tuesday afternoon – two hours after GERB announced it would start talks on joint political action in the 51st Parliament on Wednesday.
Borisov did not go and did not send his men
of the discussions with PP-DB.
However, after a meeting of his party’s Executive Committee, he responded point by point to their ultimatum. But he signed only that we will work and if there is a government, it will be outside the “DPS – New beginning” Peevski, APS Ahmed Dogan“Revival” Kostadin Kostadinov and MECH Radostin Vassilev.
“The colleague Vassilev says that my signature is worth less than a piece of paper, so you send them by e-mail so that there is no paper,” Borisov told GERB.
The leader confirmed the offer he made on the first day of parliament – a four-way coalition with him as prime minister, because that is the only way in which “political responsibility can be clearly expressed”.
I will not allow outside interference in government, we will do what we have agreed, he assured.
We treat all voters with respect. But not everyone can be included in the ruling majority. There is a strong government when there is also a strong opposition. I am the most experienced in this field. From the general decision we made, I see a construction that will work between ITN, BSP, PP-DB and our coalition. We have invited the colleagues from ITN, BSP, depending on what we agree or disagree with, then we will continue the discussion with PP-DB. They have clearly set their red lines, so we will leave them for last, explained Borisov.
For the first time in years, he will personally lead the consultations with the other parties. And for the first time, he listed the points on which GERBs will move, but with special conditions.
The whistleblower protection law will be voted “as it is by the EC, without any changes”, as it is only ratification. Personal bankruptcy law will also be supported. Both are in the PP-DB declaration.
Borisov also indicated to the BSP and ITN,
who gave a separate presentation on the subject of the law relating to what is known as a lock switch. “On the other side of the ocean, it is heard that the US will withdraw from the Paris Agreement, which will affect the package and we may not have as much pressure on the Green Deal”, he explained how his situation is diminishing and it is possible to listen to the demands of both parties that Bulgaria will renegotiate the terms under the recovery plan.
For another request from the PP-DB – the filling of the anti-corruption commission, GERBs are already ready according to the election rules. However, Borissov pointed out that the subject will not be rushed, as happened with the changes to the constitution.
“We still get the result of just listening,
I am guilty, GERB has the best experts in this field, I want every letter to be looked at so that we are not disappointed about the decisions we are voting on. I want you to be uncompromising, without giving in to pressure”, he spoke to the lawyers in the parliamentary group and especially to those who were present. Rosen Zhelyazkov And Raya Nazarian. And he expects them to work well with Nadezhda Yordanova from DB and BSP and ITN lawyers.
In the future cabinet, the parties must have their own ministers to carry political responsibility, explained Borisov. And he repeated his thesis that the speaker of parliament must be from the GERB until the governing agreement is reached, Raya Nazarianand then the post can be put back on the bargaining table.
Since the beginning of the political crisis, Borissov has been delegating to other MPs to lead the negotiations with the rest of the parliament on a negotiating team. He finally appeared after they had finished betting on those for the assembly Mary Gabriel to be a short-lived prime minister, making sure that his people humble themselves in the name of general rule.
Now, in addition to Borisov, they are in the team Raya NazarianTomislav Donchev and Rosen Zhelyazkovwhich was already part of GERB’s efforts to seek a governing majority.
Against this background, the PP-DB public is trying to gather a majority, which seemed to start negotiations firmly in search of support for his declaration, just before GERB launched its own. “There is no way to talk about any subsequent president or administration before our declaration is accepted,” he replied Kirill Petkov from Borisov. He and Bozhidar Bojanov saw in GERB a refusal to work with certain parties
“A good start, but not enough”
PP-DB still adheres to the idea that the parties should first agree on a legislative program, and the chairman – later. The idea was first launched by co-chair “Change” Asen Vasilev after Monday’s failure and he did it again on Tuesday, when the coalition started its meetings with the parliamentary groups on the sanitary cordon around “DPS – A New Beginning” and the most urgent laws.
Surprisingly, they started with two “old” of PP-DB – first Radostin Vasilev from MECH, and then with ITN, with whom they were together in the four-way coalition.
Vassilev, however, announced that he did not agree with PP-DB’s intention to talk to GERB as well. If the two main groups reach an understanding, MECH would still support anti-corruption legislation. Notices and support for changes to the Judiciary, Personal Infringement and Whistleblower Protection Acts.
With ITN, the PP-DB changed declarations to sign them together, as they had already agreed after the elections.
The President of the Commission to Combat Corruption resigns and sets up a temporary parliamentary commission to investigate the Delyan Peevski as the main priorities of the Alliance for Rights and Freedom, the people of Dogan confirmed at their meeting Kirill Petkov. They want to work together with PP-DB on the priorities of the legislative framework and to sign the sanitary cordon.
We have 86 MPs in this National Assembly who are firmly behind this sanitary cordon. A consensus is beginning to form around these priorities. We must all show that democracy cannot be bought, Petkov was satisfied. Today the PP-DB is going to talk to the BSP, after a meeting of the red Management Bureau canceled the meeting yesterday.
