Kiril Petkov: If we had trusted each other with GERB, we would not have gone to elections

He assured that during the assembly, in which PP-DB was a part, they did not make a single mistake and to the detriment of society. We are in politics because Bulgaria can be a normal European country

"I rate the chances of being the first political power in the upcoming elections as high". This was stated on the air of BNT by the co-chairman of "We continue the change". Kiril Petkov.

"In fairy tales, everyone is very strong, but when we really have to do something, no one does anything. If we trusted GERB, we would not go to the next elections. We just don't have one," he added.

"It does not matter with whom we will be in a coalition after the early parliamentary elections after October 27, if Bulgaria moves forward in its development as a European country. What we are currently putting as a model is the model in which there is an equidistant prime minister, a professional, a lawyer or an economist who recognizes the main policy in the party's program," explained Petkov.

He assured that during the assembly, in which PP-DB was a part, they did not make a single mistake to the detriment of society. We are in politics because Bulgaria can be a normal European country, said Kiril Petkov.

According to him, there are suitable candidates for prime minister after the early elections.

"The last thing I would do right now is to say ideas and prime ministerial candidates, but what I would like to say is that we don't want to have ministers and a prime minister, but what we will want is the income policy should be part of the management program," said Petkov.

Kyril Petkov also listed the positive policies in his opinion: maternity leave should be paid in full even after the second year if the mothers return to work, continuation of judicial reform, reform of anti-corruption legislation, etc.

"During our common management, we and the BSP had certain similarities, with small differences. For example, we look at social funds as investments, and in a different way," he explained.

Petkov does not know which of the two DPS will be in the next parliament. There is a big risk for Delyan Peevski not to enter the 51st National Assembly, Kiril Petkov pointed out. If both DPS enter the parliament, PP-DB will no longer work with Delyan Peevski.

He accused Peevski in his role of politically influencing GERB not to rotate the Denkov-Gabriel cabinet.

Kiril Petkov denied being naive, but has a vision for Bulgaria for justice and an equal start for the country's development. On the principle of trial and error, Petkov sees the right direction for Bulgaria.
