"Without Peevski's participation, the "assembly" it couldn't happen. Political opportunism has a high price. Voters see this and are unforgiving. PP-DB should be more consistent. GERB will have no problem embracing Peevski". This is what the political scientist Petar Cholakov said on the air of the program "Your day". on NovaNews.
"I heard an opinion that Dogan, as a pro-Russian politician, thwarted the "Zhelyazkov" government, and Peevski opposed it. This is a curious thesis. The question arises, if Putin's influence is so strong, why is Peevski involved in the formation of a pro-Atlantic government? He juggles with the image of the chairman of the DPS, he goes from the worst to the useful one," he added.
Cholakov also commented on the National Assembly's attempt to replace the head of the Anti-Corruption Commission. "Why do colleagues from the assembly talk about fighting corruption and blame each other after they ruled together? The mandate of this parliament has ended, and they have set out to replace the head of the Communist Party of Ukraine", Cholakov also pointed out.
Sociologist Yanitsa Petkova believes that the case with the head of the Anti-Corruption Commission is a good start to the election campaign. "I don't think that the topic was used or rigged, but there was no way in the last days to make an effective decision by the National Assembly. Each party starts from a comfortable position. "Everyone who participated in the debate on the case made accusations against each other," she said.
"The topic of Peevski will be the main one during the campaign. Perhaps the parties will position themselves along this main line - am I ready to work with him or not. PP-DB need a clear emancipation and separation from his image. Society is oversaturated with the impossibility of having a constructive debate. At this stage, for each of the former partners in the "assembly" Peevski is unacceptable. His formation may enter, but whether it will become a new basis for a coalition is unknown. The positive thing in the whole situation - his appearing separately from Dogan, will show what his strength is and the support for him in politics in our country," Petkova pointed out.
