In my humble opinion, the caretaker government does not have the right to make significant visits. At the beginning of the term of the regular government - yes. The caretaker government should not take on serious commitments in international politics. As a caretaker minister, I had an international situation at a climate forum for 7 months. This was stated by the former caretaker prime minister and former defense minister Stefan Yanev in the program "Live Day" on Nova News.
Each such action raises many questions, he noted.
What does it matter whether President Yotova was informed about the meeting in Kiev. This visit would have happened anyway, Yanev emphasized.
A special operation is called one that has special goals. And so far this terminology has not been changed. This makes sense from the point of view of the consequences, how the situation will develop afterwards, the former caretaker prime minister commented on the war in Ukraine.
Stefan Yanev commented on the risks for Bulgaria posed by the conflict in the Middle East: "They are not directly military. The distance between the two conflicts is great. The risks are many and varied - geopolitical, economic, social. Geopolitical risks come from the fact that the world is being rearranged. America is creating an atmosphere of distrust and unpredictability, this is also related to the markets. There is a risk that is currently being underestimated, namely, the money of Bulgarian citizens".
He warned that we have entered a spiral of drawing down government loans. It doesn't matter what the coalition is, but that it will deal with the budget and taxes. According to him, the situation is such that without raising taxes, we can't get by.
According to him, there is no risk for the capital's "Vasil Levski" airport.
When asked whether he would participate in the elections and the formation of former President Rumen Radev, Yanev said: "The question is not whether you will participate, but what you will achieve. We only hear statements, we don't see actions. The important question is whether we will not replace one oligarchy with another."
