Petkov’s cabinet can hold on if it clings to the green and GERB does not do so

If this cabinet, especially if it passes the critical winter days and gets green, and this is not far away, it may remain. This commented in front of “Focus“Parvan Simeonov, Executive Director of Gallup International Balkan.

“I do not see which of the smaller formations has an interest in shaking the boat of this cabinet now, so it seems to me that this cabinet is stable. Moreover, this price crisis is not a Bulgarian crisis. And this is very clearly understood by the people. There is another important circumstance. These crises start to sound really scary when a clear political alternative emerges.

Currently, the only political alternative that is being declared on the ground is GERB.

“But the anti-GERB sentiments in Bulgarian society are quite strong and every appearance of GERB actually has the opposite reaction – it stabilizes the government because it shows what the alternative is. There is another alternative, an attempt at a general alternative – this is the “Renaissance”. However, “Vazrazhdane” continues to behave too radically, which achieves a familiar effect from previous stages – this is the effect of “Attack”, said Parvan Simeonov.

The question is whether GERB will take out its ward business to protest, said the sociologist.

“When there are protests in the street, even if there is no great public alarm, it arises. Reference – I think two or three years ago, remember, there was a fluctuating fuel prices. Someone took out car trips around the country and our data, which we monitor every month and was absolutely normal – data on expectations for the housekeeper, suddenly jumped up with anxiety.

That is why, by the way, the protest of the IMRO was very well targeted here – they made a rally. Because I say again, it is one thing to have a background alarm, as there has been for two years, a global inflation process, it is quite another to have real people on the streets. And that is why I say: we must watch carefully whether GERB really wants to overthrow this government, which would mean that it will take out the party-related business on the streets. Let’s see “, added Parvan Simeonov.
