It will be extremely difficult for the BSP to convince its members that GERB and Borisov are “great comrades”. Are they counting on a new access to power to fill the party's coffers? Sorry, only personal coffers are being filled. And those from the social coalition have become a laughing stock.
However, the big problem for Borisov is in the MRF. Borisov's offer to them is brutal: “keep quiet and support“.
This was published on his Facebook page by energy expert and diplomat Iliyan Vassilev regarding the latest events in the country's political life. Here are some more of his thoughts:
First, he is not offering them the signing of a coalition agreement – because of Peevski's presence.
Second, he is not offering them ministerial posts.
On top of that, there are no guarantees that this will not turn into a cabinet under Peevski's control.
This is exactly the reason why Borisov did not continue negotiations with Democratic Bulgaria, because there is no way to attract them to support a Peevski cabinet with a GERB label. The reason is clear: the BSP representatives with whom he is negotiating are people completely controlled by Peevski.
Ultimately, it is not impossible that Dogan will find himself in a position where he appears to support a Peevski cabinet. Not that it is impossible, Dogan is also not indifferent to money.
