“Finally we signed the protocol and I thought they were leaving, and they said they had to detain me. I asked them why they were driving me away like a fair bear, they said that was the order. Nobody came to interrogate us for 24 hours,” he added.
According to Borissov, he was worried that something would be thrown at him during the search of his home. These people are ready for everything and are capable of everything “, the ex-prime minister was categorical.
“After last Thursday in Bulgaria, anyone can arrest anyone, saying that they are witnessing something that is not certain … On Tuesday, the Ambassador of Ukraine was here, together with our deputies. We gave him full support for Ukraine. I told him that if the government submits a request for support to Ukraine, we will support it. My impudence continued the next day with Poroshenko, Klitschko and the others we reaffirmed it. to be offended, inflamed and not to support him “. Borisov added.
According to him, the Euro-Atlantic line is clear, precise and unshakable. “I do not want you to imagine what would happen if I arrested Stanishev. When a conscientious citizen brought the report of the secret services, which was lost by Prime Minister Stanishev, I went as a witness to Stanishev that with so many materials and signatures put by one prime minister Here, the Prime Minister witnessed a man on Magnitsky, said the former Prime Minister, and asked: “If we do not trust our justice system, what did the department say?” We have all seen that this government is not happening, it is collapsing. Now they are wondering how to steal the grain, they stole the gas. ”
Borisov, Arnaudova and Goranov are appealing their detention
According to Borissov, “total damage” has been inflicted in every sphere. “Half a billion in loans each week. One area you say you’ve seen improvement. We haven’t been in government for a year. Where are the billions that would bring together the gentlemen? They take out loans and take them out for months,” he said.
“We are here to comment on the widespread manipulations after the detention of Borissov, Goranov and Arnaudova by the heads of government. It has been heard that there is a report of the State Financial Inspection, drawn up in the summer of 2021 “We have heard of another report, which probably does not exist, but it will be interesting to see, and suggests irregularities in the control systems related to European funds. This puts at risk the entire system of EU funds,” said the former Minister of Finance. Vladislav Goranov.
In December 2019, the Ministry of Finance received a signal from Vasil Bozhkov’s partners that certain gambling operators do not apply the law correctly. As a result, the State Gambling Commission does not receive the undue amount of fees related to the organization of gambling, Goranov explained. “I, as Minister of Finance, sent this report to the State Financial Inspectorate. She finds that in fact for a period of time there are declared and reported less than the due fees, “he added.
“Technology is important here. The arrest of the opposition leader, ordered after the testimony of the Prime Minister, betrays total institutional illiteracy. Some of the allegations we heard from Mr. Petkov, I politely say – do not correspond to the truth. I would not wondered if the European Commission stopped funding to Bulgaria because of the prime minister’s allegations that the Bulgarian control system was not working, “Tomislav Donchev said.

“We have already talked a lot about law as part of human rights. I expected crowds of human rights organizations to be on the streets of Sofia after the seventh day of this illegal arrest. Obviously we do not live in a state governed by the rule of law,” Desislava Atanasova said.
The chairman of the GERB-UDF PG stressed that the press release on the arrests of Borisov, Goranov and Arnaudova appeared hours before the actual detention took place. And he asked: “Is this a political club and repression? The Raska Ministry of the Interior to distribute a press release without the European Prosecutor’s Office interfering, without talking about 120 cases, without talking about detainees at the time when this announcement was spread? In this whole message, the only true thing is the names of Borisov, Goranov and Arnaudova. “
Asked by reporters whether he expected more arrests of GERB members, Borissov said yes.
