Statements of the companions and founders:
Nikola Vaptsarov:
To face up, act and stand agency in our positions to defend justice. To guard the folks from those that are stronger economically and politically. They beat us within the arm each time we attain for that justice. Let’s not neglect – that if we solely clench our fists, they may by no means be capable to cease us. Combat! We aren’t a crushed, bowed and defeated folks. Imagine in your self!
Vera Ivanova:
For years, with civil stress, we’ve been preventing step-by-step for kids and other people with disabilities. We won’t combat it but. We goal to carry morality into politics. We aren’t succeeding thus far. However the best way is thru unity, stress and voice from the road. They can not preserve crushing us. We thank Manolova for supporting us. She was the one one who mentioned it will. And it occurred. We fought for a easy proper – for our kids to dwell after we are gone.
Prof. Atanas Shterev:
I’m right here to help Maya Manolova and people who comply with her. I need me and my kinfolk and my kids to dwell in a state of legislation, to have an impartial judicial system, and never for somebody to designate the SJC and who ought to be the chief prosecutor, as a result of for the event of a society probably the most vital issues is justice. I need the training system to develop because it ought to. Why does cash comply with the scholar and we solely care about its quantity? And cash, should not cash comply with information, and the way do these younger folks notice themselves? I need well being care to be placed on a strong basis, and never for Bulgaria to be final in respect of sufferers’ rights. This undermines drugs as a science and destroys belief between sufferers and the medical career. I need the well being care fee system to be actual, the additional pay for the homeless and with out earnings organized right into a fund to pay for well being take care of these folks. No Bulgarian ought to go to the hospital along with his pockets. As a result of nowhere in a traditional authorized state is it completed like that. I need to assist these hearty individuals who got down to obtain this, led by Ma Manolova.
Penka Georgieva, “Along with you”:
I’ve identified Maya for 10 years as a member of the Authorized Committee in Parliament. We didn’t then help a legislation that she fought for. Then she scolded us for not supporting the opposite sufferers. I’ve been carrying this reproach for years and I’m preventing exactly for the sufferers. I supported her as a candidate for mayor as a result of I knew her work as an ombudsman. After I went to her concerning the dying sufferers, she was the one one who answered. I knew she did not have the ability to alter something, however she made the issue go away. She stood behind me and gave me the energy to advocate for sufferers. I nonetheless haven’t got a solution from the NHS, and it has been 4 years. We, the sufferers, stand behind her, we owe her help. When she narrowly missed out on the elections in Sofia, I mentioned to myself: Sofia is near Maya. Maya should arise Bulgaria!
Maxim Genchev:
Maya, straighten up Bulgaria! We’re dominated by slaves, that’s, we can’t dwell freely. We’re “house alone” and we’re ready for the Mom to return, to rid us of the unhealthy, the offended, the villains. Let’s comply with Maya and win if doable. If not, we’ll outsmart them!
Adv. Veska Voleva:
All of us communicate out in opposition to 45 years of communism – sorrow, drama, poverty. Do you notice that we’re in a brand new 45 years, of which 30 have already handed? Nothing has modified, solely deepened. We destroy the created. Now we have a brand new Todor Zhivkov, who stands up, argues with whoever he wants, pats whoever he wants on the shoulder. There are solely “will” and “I” in his vocabulary. And the individuals are changing into poorer and extra sad. Wages listed here are removed from these in Europe – we destroyed what was created – the economic system, training, drugs, our markets, manufacturing, water disappeared. In Bulgaria there’s a cult of character. We brag concerning the excessive charge of armaments, however I see poverty at each flip. Society has a way of corruption. There are selectmen who acquire our cash and distribute it to different selectmen. And folks vote in elections with a pen. The individuals are cannon fodder. And all of it begins from the pinnacle. Rise up! There’s a information – that is Maya.
Adv. Desislava Filipova:
The method for fulfillment is to face all the things that occurs in our nation collectively. The state has betrayed the residents, the administration is clumsy, the establishments are subordinated to the massive and to not the extraordinary folks. Right here we’re a union of individuals standing as much as it. We met indifference and heartlessness, resistance. Solely Maya opened broad the doorways of her establishment, then, and her coronary heart. She is somebody who labored tirelessly – Saturday, Sunday, all the time. I used to be impressed by her lack of worry of the crushing state repressive equipment. We do not just like the precept “You are easy and I am easy, that is why we like one another”, however “You are sensible and I am sensible, so arise!”. We aren’t allies of the established order, arise!
Dr. Kotsev:
Nothing will occur, that is all I hear. Going across the hospitals, I hear solely this – nothing will occur. After I inform the medical doctors, your kids will go away, there isn’t any one to offer you a glass of water, they reply me – they’ve already left. They should cease capturing us one after the other. These in energy are pitiful and ridiculous after we are collectively and united. We within the “Protection” union are 20 thousand folks and we stand behind Maya. I need the medical doctors to remain right here and work for Bulgaria, our kids to remain right here, in any other case we’ll soften, we’ll disappear. We’re the individuals who will arise. Out on the road. Not in heat workplaces, however out on the road – just like the French, Romanians, Poles, Hungarians…
Stefan Stefanov, lawyer, civil motion “Dnes” – Vidin:
I need us to maneuver ahead like Maya has thus far. Maya, I need you to begin within the Northwest! Come there, go to the folks and listen to the issues as a result of the state has deserted them. I invite you! They need and welcome you amongst them to attempt to resolve their issues. They are saying the state has forgotten them. Go away the North-West in opposition to the injustices within the state!
Vasil Vatrachki, Dupnitsa:
I’m right here as a consultant of 150 ladies seamstresses from Dupnitsa. Manolova and I fought in opposition to an unfair employer. We had appealed to all of the establishments, however they wrote prescriptions and nobody paid consideration to those ladies, they even mentioned that all the things was advantageous and there was no violation of the legislation. The second Ms. Manolova got here, she took care of it and the matter was resolved. Everybody mentioned nothing would occur. However folks bought their cash. And the one “wrongdoer” is Mrs. Manolova’s need to assist, in addition to her zest. We overtly stand behind Maya together with our households.
Yani Stoev, younger lawyer:
Solely Maya Manolova gave younger folks an opportunity to take motion and notice their goals of an energetic civic place. I urge younger folks to help her, as a result of I labored together with her and noticed how she provides an opportunity to work, develop and take duty.
Desislava Krumova, pupil:
Yearly younger folks go away, hoping to seek out an opportunity. I need to keep working and keep right here, increase my household right here. There are various extra college students who need this. There are nonetheless many younger individuals who need to put Bulgaria on its toes. I imagine Maya may help younger folks!
Dr. Miroslav Angelov, specialist, doctor, heart specialist:
Combating for various causes has introduced me right here. Not simply healthcare, however different simply causes as nicely. I imagine this will probably be a platform to show this nice injustice we dwell in into justice. I had the chance to go to a minimum of 4 nations, however I selected to remain right here. We are able to arise, unite and present a brand new face of our society and a brand new mannequin of human interplay for the advantage of civil society and customary folks.
Anastasia Ivanova, trainer from Dupnitsa:
I’m right here not solely as a consultant of the training system, but in addition as a mom, like different moms who despatched their kids overseas and stayed there. Our grandchildren born there not know our language. I want this affiliation to draw younger folks, to remain right here, to carry again younger folks from Western nations and to have a realization. Let’s hope we discover a place in our homeland! Collectively. I hope Mrs. Manolova will make it in order that Bulgaria will get out of the mud and takes its personal path, with younger folks on the forefront!
