"During the last 9 months, we have become hostages of a political farce without being able to leave the hall. This campaign is expected to be a ping-pong exchange of blame. With no results to brag about, the alternative remains to have attacks and shifting responsibility for failures." This was commented by the former deputy prime minister for European funds in the government of Sergey Stanishev, Meglena Plugchieva, quoted by dnes.bg.
In her words, the rulers have crossed all kinds of boundaries - both moral and legal. She urged us as a society not to put up with "this abnormality that flows in political life".
"Business claims that investments are at the bottom, the economic climate has deteriorated. The damage and harm that has been done in individual policies is great and needs to be repaired. Asen Vassilev is one of the people who caused problems for the state - he encroached on the State Land Fund to fill the budget, and now there is a new encroachment on the forests. It is an invaluable resource that grows for 100-150 years and only then can it be harvested. Instead of afforesting and protecting, Asen Vasilev proposes that the state forest enterprises be turned into joint-stock companies, which means that they are threatened with bankruptcy and liquidation, and profit will be the main concern. Everything revolves around money," Plugchieva said.
According to her, we should not settle and think that nothing will change. She is of the opinion that there will be a higher voter turnout in the upcoming elections and added that she expects the opposition to collect a higher percentage of the votes.
