Document of 9 presidents and their American counterpart Joe Biden did not appear on the website of the Bulgarian head of state

On Wednesday, the government changed without ceremony or the media

“We condemn Russia’s sabotage of Alliance territory, as we saw in the 2014 explosions at ammunition depots in Vrbetice, Czech Republic, which are a gross violation of international law. In addition, we are concerned about the information about such behavior on the territory of Bulgaria, as claimed by the investigation in Sofia. We express full solidarity with our allies, the Czech Republic and Bulgaria.

This text was signed by the presidents of NATO Group B9 – Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Hungary, joined by US President Joe Biden.

The document was approved by the heads of state on Monday at a meeting attended by Bulgaria’s Rumen Radev. But the content of the declaration was saved by the press service of Dondukov 2, Free Europe revealed.

Instead, according to Radev, the forum discussed NATO’s overall commitment to modernization and open door policy.

“24 Chasa” asked the presidential press center why in the official press release about Radev’s participation in the videoconference, sent to the media and uploaded on the presidential website, there was no information that the declaration adopted by the presidents contained the above text, which condemned sabotage ”of Russia.

At 6.25 pm we received the following answer from the President’s Media Relations Secretary Kiril Atanasov:

The head of state Rumen Radev has long expressed the position contained in the declaration of the countries of the B9 format that national security is an absolute priority and interference in the internal affairs of the country is inadmissible.

The president

already called

the Bulgarian ones

services for

security

and the government that led them until recently for concrete answers to a series of spy scandals. Information from the security services has not yet been received by the presidential institution.

The news of “Free Europe” about the document hidden by Rumen Radev’s team was used for an attack by GERB.

“I want to make it clear that the Bulgarian president not only hid the declaration, but

trying

to play

fraudulent

play on “Here

there is, there is not here ”s

geopolitical

positions,

announced former Foreign Minister Daniel Mitov before the GERB National Assembly minutes after he was nominated by leader Boyko Borissov as deputy chairman of the party.

“I will translate into Bulgarian – no wonder, hypocrisy is the basis of these people. They are trying something they can’t – flirting with Russia at the same time, while President Biden is speaking at this B9 meeting, you don’t have the courage to raise your fist and say, “I don’t agree with this declaration,” the resigned prime minister said. Boyko Borisov.

This is not the first such scandal around Radev. In 2019, at the B9 meeting in Kosice, the president announced that he had managed to change the energy declaration of the B9 group in defense of energy projects such as the Belene NPP, of which Russia is interested. In 2017, he signed the EU’s global trade agreement with Canada, although throughout his election campaign he claimed to be against SETA.

Russian connection

sneaked and at

the appointment of

the new official

government,

for which Radev issued a decree on Tuesday. The Prime Minister is expected to be former General Stefan Yanev, who was Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense in Radev’s first cabinet in 2017. According to the Factor website, he was then promoted from expert to deputy head of the Planning and Programming Directorate. and budget ”Colonel Petar Petrov, who was arrested this year during the break-up of a Russian spy network in the Ministry of Defense and the Parliament. However, Petrov remains in office in the cabinet of GERB and United Patriots. According to the indictment of the Military Prosecutor’s Office, he participated in the spy group from the beginning of 2019 until its break-up in March this year, and was even awarded by the Minister of Defense Krassimir Karakachanov.

Rumen Radev has long been accused of remaining silent about the spy scandal. He commented on it two weeks later on election day: “If the Bulgarian court confirms the mass security breach, it means that we have a deep internal problem that compromises not only our national security, but also that of the allies. Why high-ranking officials in the National Assembly and the Ministry of Defense, whose inspections and approvals are issued by services directly subordinated to the Prime Minister, hand over national security, why the fact that the organization and control of the policy for protection of classified information is carried out by The Council of Ministers?”

On April 24, he reiterated his thesis and said the government was responsible for leaking classified information to the Russian embassy.

Exactly at noon on Tuesday, Radev issued his decrees appointing the caretaker government, for the dissolution of parliament and new elections on July 11, as well as for the appointment of the new Central Election Commission.

At that time, the National Assembly of GERB was running in the National Palace of Culture, and Borissov was reporting his 10 years in power.

“Let them come and scrape us,” he threatened in his speech.

Today, Borissov will officially hand over power to the caretaker cabinet headed by Stefan Yanev. However, this will happen without the presence of the media.
