" Who is to blame and under what circumstances should be clarified by the competent authorities. I want to urge once again that theRoad Traffic Act must be obeyed. And especially it must be observed by politicians, who must set an example of observing the law in politics, in life, and on the roads".
This is what President Radev said in Burgas in connection with the accident with the NSO car in which the leader of "We continue the change" was traveling. Kiril Petkov, quoted by bTV.
„I never told my drivers to drive faster. They are professionals and they judge you. Especially for road traffic, I don't interfere in their work and we have to trust these people. They are prepared specialists”, Radev also commented.
According to him, there have been accidents in all the years since the NSO has been in existence, and even more serious ones, so he does not find a reason to change the management of the service because of this disaster.
“Let all the competent authorities establish the real reasons and then we can talk”, Rumen Radev stated again.
The extraordinary session of the Parliament on Tuesday
„In the midst of all the ridiculous changes to the Constitution that have been carried out, there have been many voices who have said that there is at least one positive thing and that is that Parliament remains in operation at all times and exercises control over the Executive. . We saw that the parliament neither works nor controls”, the head of state said.
“Unfortunately, what will most likely happen is that the parliament will be used as a pre-election tribune”, is Radev's opinion.
The topic of the Republic of North Macedonia
„North Macedonia's road to Brussels passes through Sofia. I hope the politicians there have understood that the election campaign is over. And if their destructive talk and behavior turns into real action, it means pushing their country into isolation and away from the EU, to their own detriment. citizens of the country and for the state”, said Rumen Radev
He expects them to understand that both Bulgaria and Greece are telling them that international treaties must be respected.
„This is what the EU told them. It was made very clear that thenegotiating framework must be implemented. This also means the implementation of the bilateral protocols, which specifically regulate the rejection of the language of hate, the change of textbooks, the rehabilitation of the victims, the respect for the cultural and historical heritage of Bulgaria in this country," the president pointed out.
He expects every single politician who will henceforth represent Bulgaria in the European Council to continue to defend our national interest and the rights of the Macedonian Bulgarians.
„North Macedonia must not forget that it is a candidate country and cannot impose conditions on member states. It cannot revise international treaties because it “brands“ the country as a country that does not respect international law”, Rumen Radev was categorical.
