Slavi Trifonov: PP-DB think of us as peasants and scoundrels, they are for something more  - 1

The 2026 budget was too social, I made a compromise for the sake of the protesters, said the chairman of "There is such a people" Slavi Trifonov during the "Redkolegiyata", broadcast on his Facebook. With him were the deputies from ITN Toshko Yordanov, Stanislav Balabanov, Dragomir Petrov and Alexander Valchev.

"This budget, which was too social, I am an extremely right-wing person, but I had to compromise with myself when the budget was being made, because of exactly those like those who protested - young healthy workers, etc., so that there would be money for them. Now the budget they protested against has fallen, there is no budget and they don't have that money," commented Trifonov.

From "Continuing Change - Democratic Bulgaria" they think of us as peasants and scoundrels, they think of themselves as more. Why are there such complacency in a small country like Bulgaria - I can't answer that question, Trifonov said. He told about an incident from years ago. A man approached him in the gym, without introducing himself, but he pointed out that he had been in the security services years ago and part of a team that was supposed to put an envelope with drugs in his car, after which they would stop him and accuse him of being a drug addict. The man told him that his boss at the time was Atanas Atanasov (today a deputy from the PP-DB). This is true. They were going to cook me, because at that time Ivan Kostov hated anyone to be against him. They are of this type, Trifonov also said.

According to Trifonov, there will be no uncontrolled price speculation after Bulgaria joins the eurozone because there are regulatory bodies.
