DPS excluded Ramadan Atalai from his parliamentary group. The decision was taken unanimously - with 44 votes "for", announced the Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly, Rositsa Kirova.
On June 28, the regional council of the DPS in Plovdiv decided to withdraw its confidence from the national representative. The reason given is that in the last parliamentary elections DPS attracted 6 thousand votes in the district compared to 12 thousand in the previous vote, BNT recalls.
Today Atalay stated that
Ahmed Dogan has ordered not to support the proposed GERB government.
„There is an order from the honorary chairman of DPS - Dr. Ahmed Dogan - that the parliamentary group does not support the government proposed by GERB. No negotiations have been held with the DPS, our participation in the future cabinet has not been discussed. I am convinced that the colleagues will not transgress the will of Dr. Dogan," Ramadan Atalay told bTV.
According to Atalay, in the situation that has arisen in the DPS, it is impossible to move forward without the official position of the honorary chairman, and the “Dogan“ model, which has held the party together for years, should not be allowed to be distorted.
„The dispute that has arisen is a matter of principle, not between me and Delyan Peevski. This is a dispute about how to manage the party“,
Attalai also said.
According to him, relations between Ahmed Dogan and Delyan Peevski are in a rift, and Peevski manages the party as a one-person company and removes people close to the honorary chairman.
According to Atalai Peevski, he has a tendency to part with the people he worked with with a bang. He did not rule out the possibility that Peevski could also use the services to exercise political influence.
