/View.info/ In this case, we are not talking about a political sign, but a corporate sign. This is what <a href="http://www.world-today-news.com/at-least-7-list-leaders-will-be-replaced-by-ninova-in-order-for-the-bsp-to-have-a-better-result/" title="At least 7 list leaders will be replaced by Ninova in order for the BSP to have a better result”>Tasko Ermenkov from BSP told Frog News about the fact that DPS supported GERB for taking a loan of BGN 16 billion.
We have been in a situation of rough shopping for parliamentary votes for a week. Today we set a Guinness record. During half an hour of rest, two more parliamentary parties were bought – ABV and DPS. Otherwise, the policy of the DPS is not at all surprising. Of course, we will not make a sensation out of the fact that they have supported the financial parameters of GERB. Now we can clearly talk about a coalition, which is called “4 +”, explained the deputy.
He advised viewing the camera footage of the debate. If you go through the recordings of today’s parliamentary session, you will see how at one point the entire DPS group walked out. Most likely there was hoops. I don’t want to be rude, but there was also a handing out of envelopes.
When asked if he was surprised by the fact that Radan Kanev voted “against” the debt in the first reading, Tasko Ermenkov said: You saw that all the colleagues who spoke from the Reform Bloc were firmly in favor of withdrawing this loan. If we have to talk about getting Bulgaria into a debt pit, then this process started during the time of Mr. Ivan Kostov. So today’s policy and behavior of the Reform Bloc is, as they say, the behavior of a good student who has learned a lesson from his teacher. And the fact that Radan Kanev did not support the debt in the first reading was a populist PR exercise to say: “Well, look, we still have our own opinion here, but don’t take it too seriously.” Or if I have to put it a bit on a joking basis, they were today in the role of the criticism that the humble subordinate usually addresses to his boss: “Mr. boss, I have my own opinion too, but I don’t agree with it”.
In my opinion, something was allowed today that is unacceptable to happen in a normal, democratic parliamentary republic. It is about the right of an MP to make changes and introduce proposals between the first and second reading. It was officially refused by the parliamentary tribune. For me, this is a constitutional violation, and if the leadership of the parliamentary group decides, I will firmly sign a request to the Constitutional Court to consider this issue, concluded Ermenkov.

Good day, my esteemed guests. Thank you for taking the time to join me for this interview about the latest political developments in Bulgaria. To begin, Tasko Ermenkov, you mentioned that DPS has supported GERB’s decision to take a loan of BGN 16 billion. Could you please elaborate on why this wasn’t surprising and what this means for the current government coalition? Also, what are the implications of the use of corporate lobbying practices and the distribution of envelopes during the parliamentary session?
On the other hand, Mr. Kanev, you opposed the debt in the first reading. Could you elaborate on your reasons for this stance and why you ultimately supported it in the second reading? Additionally, Tasko mentioned that there was a constitutional violation regarding an MP’s right to propose changes between the first and second readings. As a politician with experience in the field, what are your views on this? Do you think it is essential to maintain this law or is it outdated?
Transitioning to another topic, Tasko, you mentioned that it was a “normal” practice for parliamentary parties to be bought. Could you expand on this and discuss the underlying reasons for such behavior? Are there any measures that can be taken to curb this practice and promote more ethical conduct in politics?
Lastly, Mr. Kanev, as a member of the opposition party, how do you perceive the role of the Reform Bloc in the current political landscape? Are there any specific steps you would like to see them take to differentiate themselves from the ruling party and establish themselves as a credible alternative?
Thank you for your time, and I look forward to hearing your insights on these issues.
