It is not too early to talk about a constitutional crisis, it is coming, we can already see it. This is what Alexander Simov from the BSP told the BNR.
"We see that it will be difficult and in the political sense there is another element - who is responsible for this office? For me this is very important. Parliament will work and there will be parliamentary control, but whose political responsibility is it? The President is right about himself when he says that he cannot be held responsible because he does not choose the Prime Minister. To whom will the caretaker prime minister obey? Who is he listening to? We have an awful lot of unanswered questions, and that's because they upset that fine balance that the authors of the Constitution had in mind before.
Alexander Simov pointed out that "many normal people" have warned that constitutional changes are "air under pressure":
"The situation is dire, but it should teach us that if you see a political force parasitizing with the idea that it will change the Constitution to solve its internal political problems, that means that political force must be thrown out at the landfill. Even if we look at the history of the Bulgarian right, they have always failed with the judicial system. It is obvious that the urban right does not have the intellectual, moral, political and social capacity to change the Constitution".
Simov disagreed with the claims that going to early elections would create chaos:
"If the election is chaos, then you are dreaming of some kind of authoritarian regime. There is no chaos where there are dictators. Elections are the ultimate manifestation of democracy. Elections always change things. Yes, we don't always like change.
According to Alexander Simov, the better option is for the elections to be 2 in 1 - for the National Assembly and for the European Parliament:
"This will raise activity for the European elections as well. This will also help to connect the Bulgarian political process with the processes taking place in the European Union. It has its political advantages to be 2 in 1, and also economic, which is not to be neglected.
There is no time for President Rumen Radev's political project for these elections, Simov believes:
"In this election, there will not be a clean presidential party, but there will be many people who will claim to be the spokesmen of the presidential institution. I wish that at least this time Radev would be able to distinguish himself from them, to show that the president is not such an active participant in the parliamentary process. ... Now only Radev can stand at the head, he can no longer teleport from his authority. I don't think he wants something like that now.
