Ivan Shishkov: "Hemus" will be completed, but before that it must be further designed  - 1

We have a very clear program on how to develop all the abandoned parts of Bulgaria's economy, including the development of infrastructure. We will continue the way we have been working in the last 10 months - we will complete the analysis of the thefts. For this to happen, there must be a high voter turnout. This was stated by arch. Ivan Shishkov, a candidate for MP from “Progressive Bulgaria“, in the program “Face to Face” on bTV, quoted by novini.bg.

It is written in our program that we must build all the highways. The “Hemus” highway is the chewing gum of these politicians who could not do anything else, he explained.

“Let it be clear - first we will design, and then we will build all the highways. “Hemus” will be completed, but before that it must be further designed, because there are two lots of “Hemus” for which there are no projects, no route, there is a payment. Most likely, these are from the money in the bags. And why the prosecutor's office does not react, this is a question that the society has been asking for the last three years,” said the former regional minister.

“Every highway and every road that we have checked is in the prosecutor's office. I personally filed the reports. I have given very clear information, because we all saw the gaps in the asphalt with a ruler, so President Radev had to make a political project. Because in the next three years, all we tried to do was change the system in Bulgaria and hoped that they would not happen again”, pointed out Arch. Shishkov. According to him, things are now repeating themselves.
Four years later, things are repeating themselves. It is logical that we all want to change the system. It was a pity that this time was wasted, it was a pity that there were political forces that promised to change the system and did not do it. Now they have the opportunity to help us change the system, he said.

He also said that the tunnel under "Petrohan" will be designed and a public-private partnership will be sought. It will not be a private highway. We will use private capital to build this road. The connection from Vidin to Sofia will also be completed, it became clear from the words of the former regional minister.
