Burudzhieva: There may still be a minority government. It will be interesting to see how it will function  - 1

When such a process takes place against one of the political leaders in a country, both interpretations are always on the agenda. On the one hand, we all know that justice in Bulgaria is very delayed, but on the other - there are current reasons to think that it was done on purpose. First, there is no good moment in which to start the purge in the high echelons of power and the abuse of power, secondly, there is no good figure to choose. This was stated by political scientist Tatyana Burudzhieva in "Face to Face" on bTV, quoted by novini.bg

"There is always a suspicion in Bulgarian politics that such actions are purely political in nature. The probability that Kiril Petkov would make an independent decision as the person Kiril Petkov, and not as Prime Minister, to arrest a prominent politician is small. There are procedures and laws that are followed there. That is why there is always a suspicion that the actions of the prosecutor's office and the investigation are purely political", stated political scientist Georgi Kiryakov.

Here the presenter specified that the police officers had carried out an illegal order.

"There are leaked recordings that show how they talk to each other when there are no microphones and they continue to stir up problems. It makes no sense for someone to order an arrest like that. But why can't it, if we listen to them talk and say they're distributing things?", Burudzhieva pointed out.

„After all, these are people who hold democratic principles", her colleague added.

The violation of the Constitution when Mr. Kiril Petkov was a minister with dual citizenship, excuse me, but everyone knows that submitting a document does not absolve him of responsibility until there is a decision. That's elementary”, she replied.

On the topic of a new government, Burudzhieva said that she did not think there would be one. „In recent years, intrigues and rumors have begun to dominate, and we have less and less reliable information. That's why I'm skeptical. There may still be a minority government. It will be interesting to see how it functions, because this is aerobatics in politics. Every government is elected by majority. The question is which majority will elect it, to what extent the party that proposes a government of the majority, every vote will be about achieving some kind of majority" Burudzhieva pointed out.

"The opposition to this government will be fierce. This opposition can demand votes of no confidence on some policies every day and every day it will question this minority government, which will have to gather majorities every day", explained Georgi Kiryakov.

If we have such a government, an opposition can finally be formed. There will be a normalization for the opposition as well, said Tatyana Burudzhieva.

According to Kiryakov, at this stage, the return of the DB without the PP is impossible. Hypothetically, it is possible that the DB will be returned to the negotiations if Mr. Borisov sees an impossibility to form a minority government. There is another issue related to the coalition agreement between GERB-SDF and the DB. Is it falling through? Will the other two parties negotiate a new one?, he asked.

According to Burudzhieva, it would be better to sign a government program.

"Rumen Radev will not become a political entity now, he will not do so until the end of his mandate, regardless of the interests of the people around him and his administration. And if a new political entity appears, there is no wave for it. There is not enough energy, wave and anger", said political analyst Tatyana Burudzhieva.

According to her, new players are currently entering with little result. For the simple reason that these are common messages: "Everyone is a scoundrel, only I am clean and I will come". Even such a wave cannot be removed anymore. And low voter turnout leads to more subjects in parliament, she explained.
