I listened carefully to Anton Kutev this morning. He dares not mention the "Peevski-Borisov" model.
This is what the co-chair of "Democratic Bulgaria" commented on Ivaylo Mirchev.
So let me remind him, if a week after the elections he has already forgotten: Bulgarian citizens gave a clear mandate to govern, but above all, this is a mandate with one super task: the task that the protests that overthrew the previous government clearly formulated: dismantling the “Peevski-Borisov“ model.
This is a model that is suffocating the country, taking over the institutions and turning the state into a system of dependencies: a judicial system that refuses to fight corruption at the highest levels of power, subordinate regulators and dependent media, opaque state funding and rampant political clientelism, fueled by public procurement, selective access to public resources for those who are photographed under the coat of arms, as well as security services corroded by criminal and private interests.
This was recalled by the co-chairman of “Democratic Bulgaria".
This is the framework in which the word “dismantling“ makes sense: dismantling the network of institutional, media and economic dependencies, and not just a change of power.
All the evasions and verbal sleights in the media that we have witnessed in recent days represent a refusal to put before the people a plan for how to dismantle this model.
The inability to make a commitment that the security of Borisov and Peevski - although a symbolic part of this dismantling and a sign that the time of the untouchables is ending, is starting to resemble backstage negotiations.
If tomorrow, at the start of parliament, Radev's party does not set out its intentions on how it will dismantle the model, whose name it no longer dares to pronounce, this will be a symptom of a substitution of the task that the voters assigned to it, warned Ivaylo Mirchev.
