/ world today news/ Although the voters have punished us three times because of the discrepancy between words and deeds, the BSP longs to participate in the replacement of “leftist goals with right-wing means”, said Ana Pirinska, chairperson of the Commission for Ideological and Program Development in the BSP – Sofia
The waste of minds and energy is ruining the left. This was said by the chairman of BSP – Sofia, Ivan Takov, during the discussion “Socialism has a foothold in our country”. The forum was organized by the Commission for Ideological and Program Development of the City Council of the Metropolitan Socialists, chaired by Ana Pirinska. The famous Bulgarian political scientist and sociologist Petar-Emil Mitev, Tatiana Doncheva, Alexander Tomov, Valery Zablyanov, Petar Vitanov, Lalo Kirilov, Boyan Balev, Yuri Aslanov, Kaloyan Pargov, Georgi Bozhinov, Anton Kutev, Prof. Vanya Dobreva, Lyubka took part in the discussion. Kostova, Tatyana Burudzhieva, Prof. Zahari Zahariev.
The moderators of the discussion were the authors of the “Politicize this” project Mirena Filipova and Nikolay Draganov.
“The dissipation of minds, forces, energy ruins the left. It is high time to direct our thoughts and actions in the direction of gathering and concentrating them in one goal, Ivan Takov said at the opening of the discussion. – I know that the current political situation is unstable, it is possible that there will be early parliamentary elections, but we should not leave the local vote in the background in the autumn of next year”.
Ivan Takov appeals to those present for responsibility and reason regarding participation in coalitions for the upcoming elections. “We need to carefully consider who our natural partners are in Sofia. Those with whom we will help each other and move forward together, said Ivan Takov. – It is important not to participate in unprincipled coalitions with the explanation of “to save the city”. We saw that this is not working. The goal of the BSP is to participate in the governance of Sofia after the fall of 2023, but together with ideological partners who share the views of our party, who think like us, and not at every meeting of the SOS to try to they tear down some monument”.
Ana Pirinska recalled a text from the resolution of the 50th Congress of the BSP from September 2020, in which it is written that “left-right collaboration” depersonalizes the left and destroys the resistance and influence of left parties among their traditional voters – the working people. Thus they remain without their political representation. “Today, although the voters punished us three times because of the discrepancy between words and deeds, the BSP longs to participate in the replacement of “left-wing goals with right-wing means”?!, declared Ana Pirinska. – Therefore, the meaning of our discussion was one – to initiate a process of reorientation of the BSP towards its original program goals for overcoming capitalism. As well as to the main political tasks of the left now – not just to “participate” in one or another upcoming government, but to participate in the building of a broad interaction for the formation of a strong Bulgarian left, which will give a new perspective for a dignified life in a solidary society” .
