Arch. Ivan Shishkov: What is happening now smells of corruption and chaos in road construction  - 1

According to the former Minister of Regional Development, arch. Ivan Shishkov, the bad roads with the smell of corruption killed 12-year-old Siyana. “I was perhaps the first regional minister who decided to take samples of the asphalt on the roads. In 2018, 20 people died in the accident near Svoge, then there was a resignation of three ministers. What is happening now smells of corruption and chaos in road construction”, he also said in the program “The Day Live” on NOVA NEWS.
Shishkov also commented on the words of Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov that the current government will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of previous cabinets. “The same people are running the government, and in the end the prime minister comes out and says “The problem is with those before us”. Politicians blame the governments in which they ruled”, he added.
”Responsibility should be sought not only from the RIA, but also at the parliamentary level. What needs to be done is to assign the design of all highways so that we have fewer road accidents”, Shishkov also pointed out.
