Bozhidar Bozhanov: There is propaganda against us at "Petrohan"  - 1

In politics, it is not important where you are on the lists, it is important how much work you do and how the voters evaluate this. I am in fifth place in the 23rd MIR, where I have always been, the voters have always given me enough trust through preferences. So much so that I rearrange the entire list and have more preferences than Boyko Borisov. I have no worries about what the result of these elections will be. This was said by Bozhidar Bozhanov from "Continuing the Change" - "Democratic Bulgaria" (PP-DB) in the studio of "Denyat ON AIR".

"Whether the leaders and the lists are optimal is a question that is discussed in every party and coalition. Such discussions are normal, the question is to lead to a higher result, to convince more voters. There was no drama regarding the leadership positions. From the point of view of reason, of the coalition moving forward, of going to the elections, Yavor Bozhankov is not on the lists, but we think that he is useful. No matter what is decided, he will help the coalition for its result. Bozhankov, like everyone, has his deficits, but he is a good speaker, and this is an important quality in parliament," added Bozhanov on the air of Bulgaria ON AIR.

According to him, there is no tension in the PP-DB regarding the lists. "In the 25th MIR, the voters will say how they accept Boyko Rashkov," Bozhidar Bozhanov also said. The place currently assigned to PP-DB according to sociological surveys commented as follows: "I don't think it's because of "Petrohan", this is a separate topic. A completely new entity with a high personal rating for Rumen Radev has appeared on the political scene. This changes the electoral picture a lot. It increases voter turnout, which is good. With "Petrohan" there is propaganda that is directed against us, with which it is trying to turn away peripheral voters. We have nothing in common and we call for this tragedy not to be politicized," Bozhidar Bozanov emphasized.

According to him, there are many people who have not decided who they will vote for, but have decided to cast their vote, and the goal of the PP-DB is to convince them.

"The next parliament will have one first task - in addition to electing a chairman, to elect a new Supreme Judicial Council, this will be difficult, our goal is to have 160 votes outside of GERB and MRF. It was they who blocked this election. We need to change the rules, a normal political conversation should be held. Our concern is that every time you go to GERB, Peevski calls from behind, no matter how much Borisov says I won't be there anymore,", Bozhidar Bozanov also commented.

"Who and with whom should be a secondary issue, the first question is how. Corruption is being fought with a very clear program with details", explained the guest. Bozhidar Bozhanov gave a good assessment of Andrey Gyurov's work. "The most logical thing is for each Council of Ministers to change the regional governors. The Council of Ministers is expert. The goal is for regular management to be formed and for it to have clear priorities".
