"In the previous vote, we were not subject to criticism, on the contrary,". This is how the Ministry of the Interior responded to "We continue the change - Democratic Bulgaria", which criticized the choice of Dimitar Glavchev to re-appoint the current Minister of the Interior Kalin Stoyanov as an interim.
On the occasion of the successive suggestions and attacks by Kiril Petkov and Atanas Atanasov, made today, we pay special attention to the fact that before, during and after the local government elections in 2023, the actions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were not subject to criticism from them. Just the opposite. The activity of citizens reporting to the Ministry of Internal Affairs showed an increase in trust in the institution. Spreading falsehoods belittles the work of the thousands of police officers who guarded the election process and made efforts to counter vote buying.
During elections, the Ministry of the Interior primarily ensures public order. Organizes, coordinates and supervises all security measures, including operational and clear counteraction to crimes against the political rights of citizens.
Last but not least - the results of the elections are a consequence of people's trust in the representatives of our political class, the Ministry of the Interior reminds.
