I am carrying Boyko Borisov's letter to Nikolay Denkov, which we received yesterday. Inside it says: “I invite you on a date, but on condition.” “GERB - SDS is ready for a conversation. We can hold such a meeting after the President of the National Assembly is elected.” Well, take your pick. The letter is not an invitation, it does not even have a respectful form. Gen. Atanas Atanasov from "We continue the change - Democratic Bulgaria" and DSB leader on the air of Nova TV, quoted by novini.bg.
„Support wanted. 15 days after the elections, the first political force did not hold a single meeting with anyone, did not seek support. This is as a result of the activity of our coalition. We took the initiative because the first one was inactive. We may renegotiate some of our priorities, but this is our offer. The Bulgarian Republic has been slipping for a long time. No energy is produced to change the specific retardation. Borisov and GERB are the first force for the nth time and they believe that they should exercise power as they have done so far”, he stressed.
He added that the PP-DB coalition has a candidate for the chairman of the National Assembly and he will be nominated again. “Silvi Kirilov is an emergency exit. And Vezhdi Rashidov was temporarily elected as the oldest, but took until the next election. We have a caretaker government, which creates a very serious comfort for Borisov and his crony Peevski. It was a mistake that we were dealing with caretaker governments when amending the Constitution.”
“Every party is created to participate in elections and participate in power. We have a sincere desire to be a part of the country's management, because we have important priorities, the realization of which we seek. We proposed a formula for forming a government, in conditions of a fragmented parliament, with the so-called equidistant prime minister. "We need to look for a highly authoritative Bulgarian, respected in political parties, who has a good view of the political situation and is relatively independent," Gen. Atanasov.
He is categorical: “We will never agree to a candidate for prime minister whom Borisov will push the buttons from his office. That should be clear. It is no coincidence that in the election campaign we carefully discussed the possible formation of a government and therefore proposed the formula for a highly authoritative person who is relatively independent in making decisions.”
About the idea of including Assoc. Nataliya Kiselova in the “home book”, he specified: “I would not comment, I do not know this woman. I have heard her in the media that she is legally literate.”
„We don't like each other, but someone has to lead the chorus. Since the first was inactive, we took the initiative. I do not rule out that the trolling will continue and there is a plan to fish in murky water. We all realize the two options – either a regular government or new elections. Why be more agreeable? We backed down when we created the "Denkov" government, Gen. recalled. Atanas Atanasov.
When asked if rotation was possible again, he asked: “Who failed the rotation? We were ready to support a Maria Gabriel government. We have not discussed such an option again. It was easy when it was the bipartisan non-coalition. Now what is this quadruple coalition?”
He “feels” that he will not be elected Speaker of the Parliament again today.
