In Bulgarian politics, scandals are mainly sought recently, so that political agitators can be inspired. This was said on the show "Even from the Day" by political analyst Stoycho Stoychev. This was said on the show "Even from the Day" by political analyst Stoycho Stoychev.
Unfortunately, only the ultras remain, the people who think rationally are gone. This is being done to maintain combat readiness for potential elections that have been lurking everywhere in recent years, he added.
There are serious problems, such as the one with smuggling in Plovdiv, in which the police are almost punished for doing their job. Serious problems reach the National Assembly, but they do not find a solution. It is clear that in Bulgaria the power is still held by Borisov and Peevs. What could be different - nothing, said political scientist Slavi Vassilev.
There is no alternative that is meaningful, meaningful and that can prevail institutionally, noted Stoychev.
There is a meaningful alternative, but the elections in our country are not transparent and we cannot count on the Bulgarian vote being actually relayed to the National Assembly. We can also ask ourselves what kind of opposition we have, if the only legal way to overthrow the government - a vote of no confidence - has no chance of succeeding, Vassilev pointed out.
Are we ready to bear the public cost of this model being changed? We cannot start from scratch every time, we have to build on it little by little, Stoycho Stoychev commented.
It is not a question of replacing democracy with something else, it is a question of respecting the rules, which is not happening at the moment. At the moment, our democracy is in regression, corruption is widespread and whoever comes to govern becomes part of it, because it is built that way, said Slavi Vassilev.
There is no way that anyone can enter Bulgarian politics at the moment and not be sucked into this funnel with accusations of corruption. And if Levski becomes Prime Minister, he will be accused of corruption. A hysterical background has been created on this topic, said Stoycho Stoychev.
In response to a question, he predicted that the "Zhelyazkov" cabinet will remain stable until the introduction of the euro on January 1, 2026.
Slavi Vassilev expressed the opinion that the government is currently stable because it can count on the support of the leader of "DPS - New Beginning" Delyan Peevski.
