Atanas Zapryanov is recognized by GERB as their defense man. I personally invited him to be deputy minister in the "Denkov" office. He may have had close contacts in GERD, but it didn't show. This was commented by the former Minister of Defense Todor Tagarev on bTV.
According to him, the attacks against the defense minister are part of the game, but there are differences.
"Vazrazhdane", BSP attack the policy we lead, not Tagarev. But the attacks by government participants against the minister were out of "jealousy" and they are not few", the former military minister also said.
He recalled that when there were organized protests against a NATO base from some regions, he did not receive any support from GERB and their local representatives. There was also a need to adopt important documents related to defense, which were constantly postponed and did not reach the plenary hall.
I texted Borisov about one such document, he says, it is true. It was very important that the decision for February 23 not be delayed, but it was not voted on in the parliament, Tagarev explained.
In his words, PP-DB policy is based on values. "We raised the salaries of the military personnel," said the former minister.
According to Tagarev, now everyone is against PP. "Anyone who has made mistakes must bear the consequences. I observe that at the moment the fire is directed against only one place", said the former minister.
