In a short Facebook post, former Defense Minister Stefan Yanev wonders whether Deputy Prime Minister Asen Vassilev will be fired for expressing a personal opinion. In an interview with bTV on Sunday, Vassilev said: “My personal opinion is that we should send ammunition to Ukraine,” Glasove.bg reports.
We remind you that at the end of February Kiril Petkov demanded the resignation of the Minister of Defense due to his personal opinion. On the first day of Russia’s military action in Ukraine, Stefan Yanev called them a “military operation” and called for caution in the use of the term “war.”
“Why will today’s resignation be demanded? No minister has the right to his own foreign policy, especially on Facebook. No minister has the right to say that his stay is a function of the stability of this government. “My Minister of War cannot use the word ‘operation’ instead of war,” Kiril Petkov explained at the time.
