The opposition has been asking about the governing program since last week. Now about the budget - why is it being postponed, why were the numbers for January not released. The policy that the opposition should support is whether this budget will be an entry into the eurozone. This was stated by journalist Vesselin Stoynev in the show "The Day Begins" on BNT.
There is a big competition as to who is the opposition - "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria", or "Vazrazhdane" or DPS-New Beginning. For these physical clashes and verbal qualifications in parliament - the reason is Peevski. On the other hand, with their entry into parliament - "Vazrazhdane" and "Ima takvi narod" brought an aggressive tone. Not only with physical clashes, but also vulgar shouts, Stoynev pointed out.
If you ask me whether the government will survive - yes, it will survive. None of the parties in the majority is interested in the government falling in the first month, believes Assoc. Prof. Tatyana Burudzhieva.
Budget 2025
The budget is not an opposition force. It is the most serious tool for making policy, commented Assoc. Prof. Tatyana Burudzhieva.
According to her, PP-DB will support the budget. "Joining the euro is a common priority. The budget was dissolved in recent years. I have no doubt in the Ministry of Finance team that they will make a restrictive budget in order to enter the eurozone. I hope that the delay in the budget will mean that they will include it in the government's program," she pointed out.
Support for the budget will become clear on second reading, believes Veselin Stoynev. "If salaries in the Ministry of Interior and the special services remain at this level, they will not be supported by the PP-DB," he added.
Regulators
The parallel filling of the second echelon of power, bringing regulators into the hall and the budget is good. This ensures balance in the cabinet and in the National Assembly, Stoynev commented.
According to him, the opposition's problem is that even if it wants to propose nominations for regulators, it will not happen if there is no majority. "If the mandate holders are shrewd, they would bring out figures with such authority that the opposition would have nothing to say. It would seem that they would also raise them", he added.
