/ world today news/ Rumyana Bachvarova will be interior minister only nominally. The decisions will be made by someone else, and if it is Boyko Borisov, it is better for him to combine the two positions and not to hide behind his deputy prime minister.
This was stated from the rostrum of the National Assembly by BSP MP Atanas Merdzhanov during the debates surrounding the resignation of Veselin Vuchkov and the appointment of Rumyana Bachvarova in his place.
Merdzhanov announced that this decision of Borisov was made under pressure and for this reason the BSP will vote against it. The opposition is also against it because the upheavals in the “Security” sector come at the worst possible moment.
All of Europe has heightened attention to new terrorist threats, and you are leaving the services without professional and political leadership, he warned. BSP will not support Bachvarova not because it denies her qualities, but because nothing will depend on her, announced Merdzhanov.
Why is minister Vuchkov leaving – because he is arguing with the administration on legal issues, Merdzhanov cited the official reasons and added that the minister and prime minister could not read the law together, even though they adopted it together recently and were so proud of it. The BSP does not believe that this is the real reason, announced the deputy chairman of the parliamentary group of the left.
We are insisting on the real reason, he said and declared that this decision was clearly a result of pressure. Who pushed Vuchkov to demand the resignations of Lazarov and Pisanchev, and who tried to sway Borisov and take control of the services with “cop tricks”, said Merdzhanov and asked if it was “reformer #1 or Gerber #2”?
“Don’t you understand that your coalition fights are of no interest to anyone. Because of your party interests, the services are weightless. There is no minister of the interior, and considering the candidacy for a new minister – it is not expected that there will be any soon,” said Merdzhanov and recalled that a few days ago, the head of military intelligence was also released.
You succumb to pressure – from inside and outside, Merdzhanov quotes Borisov himself, who is in the parliament to listen to the debates. “Every week the government is on the brink, every week a new tremor and a new inconsistency,” Merdzhanov also commented.
According to him, Bachvarova’s nomination is a product of trickery and is a convenient option that will ensure Borisov’s influence in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and stifle the reformist passion for power. Bachvarova, while answering for the complex relations in the coalition, will also have to watch over the security of Bulgarian citizens, Merdzhanov pointed out.
“Radan Kanev swore that he did not want Vuchkov’s resignation to be a fact, but after a few hours in Bankya, he saw in this nomination a “high degree of political responsibility”. The Patriots got used to not being touched, and ABV – whatever they say now , it is not known what will change until the vote”, Atanas Merdzhanov analyzes the relations in the ruling coalition.
After him, Rosen Petrov from BDC announced that his group will support Bachvarova’s nomination, because he considers it right for a person outside the system to take up the Ministry of Energy. Stanislav Belemezov from ABV also expressed his hopes for Bachvarova to achieve high results, who did not forget to thank and praise the previous minister Veselin Vuchkov. RB will also support Bachvarova, announced during the debates the MP Dimitar Delchev, who expressed hopes that Bachvarova will approach the difficult battles ahead with her previous professionalism.
