The leader of GERB Boyko Borisov participated yesterday in a pre-election meeting with supporters of the party in Veliko Tarnovo. The Hall of the Constituent Assembly, in which she was the adopted Tarnovo Constitution greeted him with applause. The host was the mayor of Veliko Tarnovo, Daniel Panov, reports novini.bg.
The former health minister Kostadin Angelov said: "We will all work to justify the trust and responsibility". And he added: "After we continue the change, grass does not grow. We will not hand over and sell Bulgaria, said Angelov and added that 1,538 projects under operational programs of the EU have been implemented and close to BGN 500 million investments have been made in Tarnovsk Region during the time of GERB. And since 2021 - zero".
MEP Eva Meidel pointed out that Bulgaria has absorbed only 1% of the Recovery and Sustainability Plan in the last three years.
The floor was given to former Finance Minister Vladislav Goranov, who stated that it is very important what political messages are used and how the parties are named. "I'm afraid the word "Change" will take on a negative connotation, and we should not waste our words. We are not talking about Harvard, this is a problem of the academic community. The biggest problem that came with Rumen Radev's raised fist is that we could have been in the Eurozone already, he pointed out.
"Bulgaria has never been a more unstable and weak country, neither has Europe. There is total economic chaos," began Boyko Borisov.
He drew attention to the poor infrastructure in the Tarnovo region. "Some policemen pushed us to go faster, that we would be late because there is a traffic jam in the city. I opened my window and shouted to myself: Good traffic jam, good waiting... The international road passes through the bazaar. This is monstrous. Tsarigradsko is less congested than your road. But it is also blocked - the chaos is in its full extent", said the leader of GERB.
"Hemus has been overgrown with weeds for three years - so it is not important. But people have been patient for years. As for Petrich, where I left off, he stopped his way there and you travel for hours along the Kresna gorge", the former prime minister stated.
"We rehabilitated the blocks with zero BGN, now they are not rehabilitating anything, but they promised a change. No one can measure this - the change. I'm really worried about the feeling people expect from us again. But Bulgaria is a picked vegetable at the moment, they don't have the money," said Borisov.
"I don't want to comment at all on these leaked recordings because I know that. This is how the four-leaf coalition was made. Enough people have become familiar with it. I have no surprise. They have said all this in front of us. An accident can happen to anyone, and I forbade speaking and commenting from GERB, but going to asphalt, not being able to do a re-examination, if the court requests a re-examination, that's a problem, he said he.
"Can you imagine 5-6 billion sitting in Brussels and no one coming to take them", the GERB leader was indignant.
"If we have a government, next year we will enter the Eurozone", he said. "We were a benchmark for zero migration and Boyko Rashkov came - my offense has remained. I will never take revenge for what they did to the children against us. They arrested Sevda because he is a good PR man. Should we give these people more power?", Borisov asks.
"I am trying to keep a normal conversation with the people and Hristo Ivanov said that if most likely GERB will win and most likely form a government with DPS, but that will be very unstable. Well done Christ, you are absolutely right. But this means an unstable Bulgaria, inconspicuous, not participating anywhere. And it would fall. Then what will you do, Christ? What will you do without us, Hristo? It will be unstable again and Bulgaria will be unstable again for years to come", predicted the GERB leader.
"If we start taking loans like them and giving away for pensions, we will bankrupt the state. Strict financial discipline, conservative finances, preservation of taxes, power in the IT sector and innovation will be there in the future," he said.
"PP-DB owe us a rotation, as we supported them for 10 months. If they want something stable, they will support us, we will be the leaders, but we need at least 2 more parties to enter. In the fall, we must have a new budget and give the Bulgarians some light. Otherwise, I will tell Hristo that Bulgaria becomes more unstable every time and has no desire to govern. "The assets are already at the limit," Boyko Borisov stressed. "This time we cannot support the second or the third, people want us to be the dominant force," concluded the GERB leader.
