Balabanov vs. Assen Vassilev: The government - must serve a full term  - 1

"It is normal to have criticism of the cabinet, everyone has the right to speak. However, the practice in parliament is completely different. Democracy has provided the opportunity for this parliamentary policy. ITN is responsible in the executive branch with several line ministers. In order to complete all the planned work of the government - it must serve a full term. There is a possibility that the "Kozloduy" NPP will develop further, I am more skeptical about Belene.

This was announced on NOVA by Stanislav Balabanov from "Ima takvi narod" (ITN).

"ITN is responsible in the executive branch with several line ministers. The Ministry of Transport, for example, did something useful for the whole society - the order for modern trains, the ban on drones. The children's hospital will certainly be there - Silvi Kirilov signed all the documentation. There will also be a children's hospital in Burgas. Medicines for children have become free", he said.

My name is not Assen Vassilev and I have not made a stupid Recovery and Sustainability Plan (RSP), because of which we wonder how to arrange the budget. Three parties have the opportunity to do something in this impossible environment. When the ITN were the first force - we did not have enough support, so we did not succeed. In order for something to happen, there must be the necessary time. After 100 days it is normal to prepare the documentation for something to happen. But the government must remain in order for all things to be implemented", said Balabanov.

"We from the ITN are for the development of our energy sector. There is a possibility that the "Kozloduy" NPP can develop further, I am more skeptical about Belene. However, we can put the reactors in "Kozloduy", that's why they didn't go to Ukraine. We have to protect our Bulgarian interest. If we benefit from these reactors - let's use them," Balabanov also pointed out.

"Until this thing happens to wake up in a country where the euro is a fact - there are still things. There must be a stable government, so that the state does not fall into the situation - so that no one is responsible. If we assume that the date is January 1 - we need a regular cabinet. In order for something to happen - we have a legislative program with a four-year mandate. On the 100th day, we have announced the things that will happen. If this government falls the day after tomorrow, it will do a favor to certain people who want elections," he is sure.

"Specific political parties can vote as they want and judge. With their behavior, "We continue the change-Democratic Bulgaria" (PP-DB) once again supported the cabinet. This is their decision. The three main parties that remained - it is normal for us to seek support. I assure you that many laws were also supported by other opposition parties, not only by New Beginning. The chairman of the KEVR, for example, was elected with the votes of the DPS-DPS. The clear responsibility lies with the three parties - GERB, BSP and ITN", said Balabanov.

According to him, the case of the operation from November last year for cigarette smuggling will certainly be solved.

"Daniel Mitov spent a lot of time in terms of hearing the police officers. The names mentioned in the public space are no longer part of the system. Anyone who thought that they could break the law will bear responsibility. "I don't know who the mole from the GDBOP is who warned them - there are institutions that can find him. These things must be stopped. That's why we at the ITN are behind their hearing in parliament," the MP pointed out.

Balabanov is categorical that in order for all the planned work of the government to be completed - it must serve a full term.
