Kiril Petkov says they cannot form a joint parliamentary group with DB for moral reasons, and he was shopping for ITN deputies at laboratories, he pointed out.
“Change” has rejected a coalition and whatever they have created, this is their best option and I totally understand them. Let me say that either they don’t understand us, or they are pretending not to understand us. We are not proposing a coalition, nor are we proposing any form of communication outside of what is useful for the state, GERB leader Boyko Borisov told Valchidol about the formation of a government, after “Continuing the Change” rejected GERB’s proposal for a toilet.
I only remind you of what we talked about and why the idea of intermediaries, contact groups, I think will work and nothing is lost. The first and most important issue is the war in Ukraine. She is knocking on our door. It is close to us. There are threats of nuclear attacks, bombing of Zaporozhye, unclear ownership – Putin says it belongs to him but it is not. These are territories that we don’t recognize because of the way they are annexed. Therefore, our contact group is made up of people who have proven their positions to our Euro-Atlantic partners. And that’s why we only broadcast two: Rosen Plevneliev and Solomon Passy. Leaving the door open for anyone from the other parties to include a person on this negotiating team. Because it’s normal that we are all in a different mood after the elections, he explained.
The elections showed that people said “yes” to GERB. But he didn’t tell GERB to rule alone. I understand that it is convenient for them to credit us with “Revival” as a possibility. They have their merits too, but we don’t have them in any way, unlike Kiril and Asen, who claim it didn’t matter what the embassies thought. And the embassies are the direct representatives of the politics of the respective country, said Borisov.
I consider my partners in Brussels, Washington, the EU and NATO. For them, issue number 1 is the war in Ukraine and everything else is empty talk, she added.
Boyko Borissov also stated that he had not heard of “Continuing the Change” on this topic during their briefing, and in particular on preserving our Euro-Atlantic orientation, as well as “directly helping our friends from Ukraine”.
“They talk a lot about this topic and even say they will form a coalition with the categorical opponent of it: the BSP. There is something ambiguous,” added Borisov.
The second most important issue is the diversification of nuclear fuel, oil, gas and their taking on long-term contracts with clear and programmatic commercial and consumption objectives. It became clear from the interim government that these tankers did not negotiate, they did not sign, he said.
We need to have a very flexible government and parliament. They escaped these questions. They said they were against buying military aircraft. We cannot be angry with Radev, who is a pilot and a preference for the aircraft brand. We strongly believe that the second part of the squadron must be the same as the first. There must be a regular government. Some morning we may arise with a very serious disaster in the region – I mean Zaporozhye. And then they will very quickly forget what we were offended by and that will be topic # 1, the GERB leader explained.
I would like to warn them, however, that the election campaign is over. And we can read the numbers. When Asen Vassilev talks about a 3% deficit, and the state, by cutting all capital expenditures, will go to 4%. They bathe in the comfort of the media. Today, Asen Vassilev said of a deficit of 7% and the allowance is up to 3%, these are the requirements of the EC, Borisov also said.
Kiril Petkov says they cannot form a joint parliamentary group with DB for moral reasons and this was not a substitute for the election. Just 2 months ago he was shopping in the laboratories of the ITN deputies. Their coalition collapsed because they couldn’t split the money, he pointed out.
If we enter parliament so divided, how will we accept the budget. People show that they want us to be reasonable on matters that are important to people. I said that a coalition is formed only with sister parties of the Euro-Atlantic bloc. Our umbilical cord is connected to Euro-Atlantic leaders. I can take all kinds of shots, I can’t take one because they still believe in it today. Our proposals and our contact group will also go to DPS, it will go to all of them. I suggest that leaders step aside so contact groups can work more easily. I hope that reason prevails. We have all made mistakes, so there is forgiveness in our religion. I’m optimistic, we pay attention to people, she said.
