The budget is a public instrument. Whenever budgets are discussed, there is public tension. For me, there is a serious clash between the two dimensions of the budget – the public and the economic. The historical mission of this administration is to complete the integration of the euro. The task before the budget is to complete this process with the euro, but the greatest price should not fall on the poorest and most disadvantaged people. This was stated to BNT by Boryana Dimitrova, a sociologist from "Alpha Research", quoted by novini.bg.
Sociologist from "Myara" Parvan Simeonov commented on the topic of whether peace is bought with the budget: "Obviously, this is the aspiration of the authorities. I am not optimistic whether they will be able to achieve such peace. It turned out that a large part of the more European layers in our country are protesting against this budget – another proof that not the budget allocation, but political readings are more important. The series of protests – are blowing a new wind.”
Dimitrova commented on the geopolitical situation on a global scale: "We are talking about a negotiation process, obviously typical of Trump. To draw conclusions today that Europe is humiliated and has no future is too premature. A process of negotiations is ahead, of testing positions that will inevitably affect Bulgaria. The focal point will be the presidential elections next year. The big story is for the voters.”
„Peevski is becoming an irritant with his undisputed political successes. He will grow in the next elections. A new political alternative is logical, Radev will apparently enter more nationalist-sounding territories - what the BSP could have been. The presidential elections will be a vote of confidence or no confidence in the current government. Both Peevski and Borisov are thinking about these elections from morning to night. If the ruling party loses these elections, an early vote will probably follow and there will be a surge for Radev's party,” is Simeonov's opinion.
„The most curious thing is what Borisov will do, because he is visibly uncomfortable in Peevski's company. "Spetsov is a very accurate Borisov move. The big question is whether Peevski will control “Lukoil”, he added.
