I am a citizen who deals with politics, I do not I am a politician. The politician is structured in a strange way. He thinks first of his own political party, then of his political group, and if there is time left he thinks of the people. And about his career right at the beginning. It's the other way around for me.
This was said by the MEP and leader of the list from VMRO Andrey Slabakov in the studio of bTV.
According to him, the work in the EP is done by intelligent people who do not succumb to manipulation. “I belong to the coolest group – of the conservatives. In other groups, if you don't vote as you are told, you will be kicked out of the group. If something doesn't work for Bulgaria, I can vote against my own group, Slabakov pointed out.
He was categorical that it is necessary for voters to have an educational qualification.
On the topic of relations between Bulgaria and North Macedonia, Slabakov said that the policy of our neighbor is anti-Bulgarian. “Something worrying is happening and that is that Emmanuel Macron is the guarantor, so our relations will be wonderful and everything will be fulfilled. Macron cannot be a guarantor of anything. He was a guarantor of the Minsk agreements, and we already have a war between Ukraine and Russia, Slabakov said.
According to the politician, “the lack of authorities and leaders in the European Union is a nightmare”.
People imagine that an MEP goes to Brussels and does nothing for 5 years, Slabakov pointed out. He explained that the salary of an MEP is around 7,800 euros.
