Stefan Yanev: We have had talks with Rumen Radev, but not specific ones  - 1

I do not think that I will be a caretaker minister. I am the chairman of a party and I do not feel like entering a cabinet. President Yotova made the best choice for prime minister from the options she had. This was stated by the former caretaker prime minister Stefan Yanev in the program “From the Day“ on BNT, quoted by novini.bg.
In his words, we should not look at personalities, but rather at the cabinet of Bulgaria. It should lead the country along the path of good practices. A caretaker cabinet is evaluated by how the elections will be held.

The honesty of the vote can be guaranteed by the citizens of Bulgaria. They give credit to trust. It is important how the system works. With the right tasks, it can work well. Whether the right people will be elected, I cannot say. The allegations of buying the elections are noise in the ears of voters to encourage them not to go to the polls, he emphasized.

The erosion of trust does not come from the caretaker cabinets, but from the structures of the state and how they are managed. The main task is the organization of the elections, the former caretaker prime minister specified.
We are before elections. Everyone is inclined to launch all kinds of theories. If the rules are followed, responsibility is taken and results are sought, I am not against such an agreement between President Yotova and Rumen Radev, he commented.

Yanev revealed: "We have had talks with Rumen Radev, but not specific ones. He is entering party politics. These actions of his are accompanied by great hope among citizens for a change in political life. I imagine political interaction in terms of important priorities for our society. First and foremost is the fairness of the elections, second – ordering our state, listening to the citizens".

We have a strategy that is complete and developed in all spheres of the economy and public life. Not least is fiscal policy, the former caretaker prime minister specified.

A joint appearance in the elections of Stefan Yanev and Rumen Radev is possible. There was such a conversation, but not in detail, Yanev announced.

"The “Petrohan“ case is again about trust. Unfortunately, we are talking about a case in which 6 human lives were lost. Probably, the information that is presented to us will never satisfy people's curiosity. I can't say who did their job how at that time, there are services for that," he explained.

According to him, the lack of trust sharpens society's senses and it gives signs that everyone understands from everyone. This is the effect of social networks.
