/View.info/ I want to write about Alexander Simov. And that shouldn’t be difficult. He largely built his image himself. He was also evaluated in the BSP. As a publicist with a strong public position, he is particularly close to me. Maybe because we are related to the direction of the gaze. Still, it’s hard for me. Because the topic is about the city of Kardzhali. For the 9th MIR, where in the list of the “BSP for Bulgaria” coalition, Sasho is quite deservedly in first place. And I, with all my heart, wish him to succeed where others have failed.
In the last months, as if by a calculated orbit, the subject of Kardzhali, like a comet, crossed the horizon of our daily desires and lit up again the anxious sky of the Bulgarian destiny. She was picked up by TV wizards; she was discussed by newspaper specialists; it was discussed by numerous authorities with scientific titles and ranks; laymen and nihilists exasperated her as if she had barely cut a wound; patriots and sinners were tearing their shirts and fighting in their chests; the meckerets hissed around the ganky cafes of Bulgaria, hastily changing their skins to creeping creatures… And she, like a pale usurer, looked around in the water mirror of the city and promised, with the glitter of the altons and stars, glory for the soothsayer who could reveal the secret of this knot of the centuries, called Kardzhali.
Yes, the topic is irrelevant. Approaching it can slip the gullible. The idyll in which for years the mayor, priest and mufti have been drinking coffee at the daskala is just a shiny bohcha. Beneath it slumbers the dead excitement of power lines of confrontations, interests, fears and hopes.
And Sasho is open, clear, conceptual and direct. He reacts quickly, I would say even instantly, and this is a great advantage in a public debate, in a journalistic spat, in a political over-the-shoulder response. But in Kardzhali, even the children know that “east, here’s a thin business”.
And this city has not been on the frontlines since yesterday. In it, the Bulgarian division and opposition is most prominent. In these elections, we will be divided into 19 parties and coalitions. Some completely unnecessary and pointless. Turks – only in two. But neither Pope Petar, nor the daskala, nor the enchantress Tsveta Karayancheva asked Mufti Beyhan Mehmed whom he would perform ikhtibar on March 26.
And the mayor Hassan Aziz, who is in second place on the DPS list after the leader Mustafa Karadayi, hardly knows the right answer. Against them, the Bulgarian citizens with Turkish ethnic self-consciousness, and against the Bulgarians are the millions in green from a neighboring country; the assets and effectives underlying its mobilization plan; the strategic depth of her idea, which, like a double-edged sword, reaches the heart of Bulgaria.
Who is she nice to? And how many of the leaders of the lists, the most prepared and the most worthy in the judgment of their party headquarters, realize the drama of the situation, which requires not division, but concentration of the will and energy of all for whom the possible breakthrough of the open agency is a mortal threat from the so-called DOST union?
I doubt whether they even think about it, and who can explain it to them with the categories of concepts such as national interest and threat to the statehood of the Bulgarians? The authorities in this regard have moved to a better world. Somewhere in the dizzying attacks on fronts and redoubts, the generations for whom Grandpa Vazov cried: “Bulgaria, they died for you” also lay down.
Disgusted and desperate in turn, those of us who incorporated the drive and will of our youth for a Bulgaria, turned like a sunflower field to the clear sun of its creative day, also take over…
But shut up, heart!
I wanted to write about Alexander Simov. To encourage him, to give him the confidence to follow the star above his path. Let me tell him that I studied in detail the lists of deputy candidate lists in the 9th multi-mandate constituency. And I can repeat the words of Golemanov: “Let the people be finished, the candidates for ministers never!” There must be many worthy candidates among the candidates, but I give my trust to him. Because I know that he understands the complexity of the task in Kardzhali, that the situation is like that of Shipka without Radetsky. And mainly because he alone can explain the need for another approach to fame, apart from Golemanov’s approach.
In Kardzhali, unity is needed for everyone, regardless of faith and ethnicity. A united people’s front, where the front line runs only along the home-foreign line – face to face, chest to chest!
Let it not sound democratic, but someone must shout: the enemy is at the gates!
Sasho, do it!
