/ world at present information/ In latest months, Kornelia Ninova’s apologists have publicly imposed the opinion that any socialist who criticizes her, or who dares to run alongside her for the chairmanship of the BSP, is a bribe, an agent, an enemy with a celebration ticket who serves GERB and Boyko Borisov.
The leaders of this anti-party pro-Gerber exercise are the 2 former chairmen of the social gathering – Sergey Stanishev and Mikhail Mikov, the chairman of the BSP-Plovdiv area Georgi Gergov, the deputy chairman of the BSP for organizational issues Kiril Dobrev, former members of the IB and former MPs equivalent to Atanas Merdzhanov and Georgi Bozhinov, members of the Nationwide Meeting of the BSP and others. The group of “conspirators” additionally contains socialist MPs equivalent to Krasimir Yankov, Dora Yankova, Valery Zablyanov, Dobromir Stoynev, Anton Kutev, and so on., cadres such because the mayor of Pernik, Stanislav Vladimirov, who’ve already misplaced the favor of Ninova.
Every now and then, social gathering leaders equivalent to Kaloyan Pargov, who, in accordance with the suspicious creativeness, may threaten the management place within the social gathering (searching for “proof”, the circle round Ninova went as far as to publish within the press a photograph of him in entrance of the monument) of the holy brothers Cyril and Methodius on Might 24, Pargov spoke appropriately and politely with the mayor of Sofia, Yordanka Fandakova, deputy chairman of the GERB social gathering).
Now to the details!
And the details say that there isn’t a authoritative socialist who advocated an unprincipled coalition with GERB! There are most likely comrades who know Borisov and maybe keep relations with him. However that is hardly a sin or against the law. I’ll repeat: nobody, not even the defeated Georgi Gergov, has betrayed our social gathering pursuits in favor of GERB.
On the similar time, the criticism of President Ninova’s coverage refers back to the fruitless and non-constructive opposition of our parliamentary group, destroying the prospects for dialogue or at the very least partial settlement with the forces represented within the parliament, together with GERB – the most important social gathering formation within the Nationwide Meeting. From this one-sided coverage, solely BSP has misplaced thus far, however not GERB! Thank God, in latest weeks the oppositional conduct of the left-wing MPs has developed, because it have been, in a constructive route.
Certainly, as Ninova insists, GERB is our fundamental opponent within the wrestle to amass actual energy within the nation. However this could not function an excuse for the chairman of the BSP to not measure his phrases, to not management his nerves (have you learnt that revenge is sort of a dish that’s served chilly?!), to make use of solely the language of confrontation.
With a cussed opposition, with a coverage of isolationism, with the conceited conduct of an infallible politician, with a refusal to acknowledge the BSP’s faults throughout the transition, Ninova managed to quarrel with all of the events within the parliament – first she broke relations with the United Patriots, then with ” Volya” and GERB, hoping to organize a entrance in opposition to the parliamentary majority along with DPS, who, nevertheless, most well-liked cohabitation with out marriage with Boyko Borisov.
Kornelia Ninova is criticized, additionally, as a result of she made the primary objective of the BSP not the social gathering’s participation in energy, however the “dethronement” of Boyko Borisov in itself. For her, the one necessary factor is to knock him out, even at the price of the socialists not profitable the following parliamentary elections and remaining within the opposition after 2021, additional weakening their affect in society (within the situations of the post-bourgeois growth of Bulgaria, remaining socialist social gathering fourteen years in opposition could have disastrous penalties for it).
Boyko Borisov has been prime minister for ten years. Academician Angel Balevski’s definition of drained metallic may also be attributed to Borisov’s political longevity. And as it’s clear, the assaults of the oligarch Vasil Bozhkov signify a much more severe hazard for the prime minister than the formidable rhetoric of our president.
Personally, I feel that in view of the deplorable political, financial and geopolitical scenario in our nation, there are strategic issues that require fast interplay of the elemental political forces. It’s sufficient to take a look at the demographic disaster to be satisfied of the reality of this assertion. Or to the forecasts for the melting of the main function of the Bulgarian ethnic group. Or to our Balkan coverage, together with relations with Macedonia. Or to the necessity to velocity up the tempo of our financial growth throughout the EU, which means the united efforts of the Bulgarian folks, their political and civil organizations. Or to our whole geopolitical dependencies, which threatened the independence of the fatherland, and so on., and so on.
As well as, it will likely be essential – after the parliamentary elections within the spring of 2021 – for the BSP to prepare conferences with every of the forces represented within the parliament, justifying the details of its program for the administration of the nation, providing varied types of coalition cooperation ( and coalitional cooperation resembles an uncomfortable pair of sneakers that one hopes for lack of extra comfy ones).
However Ninova additionally reacted excessively in instances of probabilities for coalition cooperation or partnership within the parliament. Other than her most well-liked string of philippics in precept (?), it’s clear from her statements that the victory of the BSP within the subsequent parliamentary elections is tied in a towel. These claims are accompanied by propaganda smoke in order to not trigger disillusionment amongst social gathering members and sympathizers. The ultra-left phrasing used serves the identical objective. Pseudo-romanticism as an alternative of realism in motion!
We’re all conscious. In addition to the chairman of our social gathering: the BSP is popping out of the pandemic scenario with a heavy defeat – 11% confidence. In probably the most optimistic forecast till the elections for the Nationwide Meeting (ten months away), the utmost percentages that the BSP may win again could be someplace round 20% (even with the worsening of the financial and social scenario within the nation). And with this 20% BSP can not dictate the longer term authorities.
Due to this fact, the management of our social gathering must let go of the dream of governing independently, and deal with, any more, the advanced issues of coalition politics. The dialogue concerning the coalition tradition of the BSP within the fashionable setting may obtain publicity, particularly since with out such a coalition coverage, the BSP dangers remaining within the opposition once more!
It’s naive to imagine that miracles will occur in these ten months. No. They won’t happen (with or with out Nineveh)! And but the left-wing MPs may discover the saving coalition formulation and codecs, because of negotiations with the events within the Nationwide Meeting, to indicate that no matter social gathering variations, for the sake of Bulgaria, they’re prepared for mutual concessions and mutual respect, dialogue of most and minimal packages, and so on.
Any further, it may be mentioned that, on the whole, the composition of the following parliament can be extra numerous. The events of the present ruling majority and the opposition will most definitely take part within the new Nationwide Meeting. The longer term formations of Slavi Trifonov and Maya Manolova have an opportunity of coming into the brand new parliament (they are going to take away votes from the fitting and the left, that’s, GERB and BSP would be the most affected by their participation). The potential of “Democratic Bulgaria” and in addition the potential social gathering of Tsvetan Tsvetanov shouldn’t be underestimated.
For the BSP, it will likely be of nice significance to objectively assess the character and that means of the post-election coalition it is going to enter.
Then again, not solely the BSP, but in addition the left on the whole, won’t have a majority within the new parliament. Because of this, the BSP must negotiate with events to the fitting of the middle, in addition to with liberal-oriented events. The participation of the socialist social gathering in a “massive” or “small” coalition shouldn’t be dominated out a priori. The potential coalition with the social gathering of the impoverished Bulgarian Muslims and the massive Bulgarian capital – DPS – ought to be given particular consideration, since DPS secretly betrayed the coalition with the BSP 4 years in the past.
As for the pre-election coalition, the management of the BSP known as upon to soberly assess to what extent the person small (ultra-small) left formations will improve the variety of its voters. Right here, demagogic gestures can solely do no hurt. It will be expedient to briefly scale back (or remove) the share of the civil quota. And one thing else. Earlier than establishing a pre-election coalition, it will likely be extraordinarily essential for the management of the BSP to beat the interior social gathering break up that was brought on by him (!).
If, in the end, there may be a lot insistence on clarifying which social gathering cadre is an individual, agent, conductor of GERB’s pursuits, one other means of generalization may very well be resorted to. Give it some thought! Do not GERB and Boyko Borisov profit from at present’s management of the BSP, which has introduced issues to the purpose the place ten months earlier than the parliamentary elections, the most important left-wing social gathering in our nation enjoys solely 11% belief, and its chairman 9%? For GERB to have in opposition to it a celebration which, in the previous couple of years alone, thirty to forty thousand folks have left it. A celebration shaken by leadermania, by suicidal inside clashes, by dishonorable abuse of its leaders and leaders? A celebration that within the final 4 years misplaced three elections in a row – for the Nationwide Meeting, for the European Parliament and for native authorities.
Solely a blind particular person shouldn’t be clear that GERB advantages from such management of the BSP. And what type?!
It’s comprehensible that at present Ninova is primarily interested by securing the election for the chairman of the BSP. Thus, she’s going to current herself to the delegates of the soon-to-be congress because the winner, chosen immediately by the social gathering membership. A winner who will predetermine the election of the members of the Nationwide Council in accordance with the private devotion of every one to the chief and to the insurance policies he pursues. It is going to additionally impose on future candidate MPs. Due to this fact, we shouldn’t be stunned by the assist that Ninova is already receiving from each younger office-goers and well-deserved officers hoping to guard their private pursuits by way of extremely publicized assist.
The one impediment that Cornelia Ninova and her group will be unable to beat are the elections for the Nationwide Meeting. Due to this fact, it could be good if the mediators of Ninova formulate in time these arguments that can current one other election lack of the BSP for victory.
I’ll emphasize as soon as extra. The BSP remaining in opposition after 2021. is harmful to the existence of the social gathering. The incantations that this was the want of the pariah members are empty discuss. Let’s go searching. Younger and ready individuals are leaving the social gathering. These to whom the current and the longer term belong.
And so, within the coming months, extreme trials await us. The low ranking of the BSP, unprecedented within the final thirty years, is an event to summarize. Cornelia Ninova bears the big accountability of making certain unity within the social gathering. In dramatic conditions, a superb chief, a real chief, unites. BSP shouldn’t be an organization, nor an OOD, the place the boss can do no matter he desires. It’s a dwelling organism through which folks join by way of concepts, by way of factors of view, by way of the need to vary. Whether or not praised or criticized, a real chief builds bridges, not burns them. It appears to me that we might have the chance to vary the scenario earlier than the elections, whether it is realized that the seek for the enemy with a celebration ticket, the requires the resignation or expulsion of social gathering members, the concentrating on with compromising supplies are harmful for the BSP and may flip right into a boomerang . The current requires the participation of each member of the BSP, it requires the seek for the trail of inclusion, of utilizing all of the professional potential to beat at present’s and future challenges. And that primarily is determined by the chairman. Due to this fact, the BSP has the interior forces to vary the detrimental traits, however not by slandering and stigmatizing itself, however by rethinking these values and experiences that bind socialists into one entire.
