There have been disputes about the post of chairman of the parliament since the beginning of the government. GERB, as the largest parliamentary group, had the claim to the post as their representative and raised this topic every month. This was said in the program "Face to Face" on bTV, the chairman of the PG of the "BSP-United Left" Dragomir Stoynev, quoted by novini.bg.
Tomorrow we have a coalition council, the talks continue. This is an organizational issue. In this situation of instability, the BSP is the only factor that exudes stability, Stoynev said.
In response to a question, he explained that "There is such a people" proposed the rotation of the Speaker of the National Assembly last week. We agreed that all political forces should have their representative in the post and that Natalia Kiselova should take up the post again for the fourth year. I don't see any drama, I don't think there was any betrayal. This is an organizational issue and it is good that it be resolved because it was creating tension. We persisted for 10 months, but after the constructive proposal of "There is such a people" - I think Toshko Yordanov proposed it, we sat down and discussed it. In conversations with sympathizers, we defended Ms. Kiselova because she is a good Speaker of the National Assembly, with her actions over the last 10 months she has shown that she is also a statesman, the socialist pointed out.
Dragomir Stoynev called the statement of GERB leader Boyko Borisov after the elections for municipal councilors in Pazardzhik, which caused a government crisis, "a gross mistake".
He realizes that he was wrong, this will not happen again. We should not succumb to such political uncertainty, Stoynev noted.
He assured that there are no ministries in the BSP that have been given up for concession, as Borisov claimed. I think the BSP ministers are impeccable, said the chairman of the BSP-United Left Parliamentary Group.
The upcoming budget will be a stabilization budget. I am glad that with joint efforts we will achieve some good results that citizens will be satisfied with. There will be no reduction in incomes, they will be increased above inflation. The hole in the State Social Security will be filled. All three parties are of the opinion that the maximum social security income should be raised. We must also start talks about transforming tax policy so that we seek greater justice, because the inequalities in Bulgaria are appalling, stressed Dragomir Stoynev.
According to him, the ruling coalition is stable. Thanks to this government, Bulgaria is becoming a normal European country, he said.
In connection with the American sanctions against "Lukoil" Stoynev assured that the government has a plan and, in case of need, can guarantee oil supplies to the Bulgarian economy for three months.
The state reserve is full, the companies themselves have enough of their own reserves, at this stage there is no room for panic. But if Lukoil" stops working, this reserve and imports will follow, the socialist commented, adding that this will also put the jobs of thousands of Bulgarian citizens at risk.
