The big failure of the politicians in Bulgaria is that they cannot answer the question of partnerships, they cannot demonstrate a coalition culture. This is the reason for this permanent 3-year election cycle and for the upcoming 7th early parliamentary elections.
This is what sociologist Elena Darieva told FOCUS.
"One of the key questions is: And then where? In any case, the parties that are traditionally on the political scene will have to sit at the same table after October 27 and see if they will be able to show will then and if they have learned the lessons that remained unlearned in recent years,&ldquo ; she said, adding that otherwise a tipping point could be reached, beyond which a mobilization of outrage could occur.
In her words, it is important in the name of what you form certain associations, not with whom you unite in politics. According to her, the ethics of responsibility is much more important when a policy is aware of the consequences, where the goal is important, "i.e. compromise is permissible as long as there is a legitimate goal being pursued.“
According to Elena Darieva, the most logical thing would be the realization of a strategic partnership between GERB and PP-DB, despite their common traumatic past, at least because they have ideological proximity. "But if this logic, the logic of ideological proximity, had worked, we should have witnessed the agreed rotation at the beginning of this year, not going to elections in early July, not wasting historical time and money, and we are calculating reputational damages and we abandon the processes in the European Union. From all this, voters lose, politicians lose, the political process as a whole loses,” she also emphasized.
