This exercise (ed. - the elections) cost us 100 million BGN – to each of us. BGN 100 million are these elections. Total so far – more than 1 billion BGN were given. Because we're joking about what we're going to do. This is what GERB leader Boyko Borisov said at a pre-election event in Burgas, quoted by novini.bg.
"Besides ours, the other campaign is for attorney general. We are the state of the chief prosecutors, for 30 years this is all we talk to each other. The most empowered figure under our Constitution – we follow the German model, in France it is the president, in Germany it is the chancellor. We are on the German model – and this is the prime minister. We are currently campaigning without knowing who he will be. It is even suggested that someone from afar bring the ministers along. And we have written that we guarantee these things, he can ask for something else. The goal is not to have ministers and a cabinet. The election and the whole campaign is about who will be the chief prosecutor and the head of KONPI. Why? So that they can deal with political opponents. Without GERD, everyone else is interested in that," he added.
"I should have then suggested to Hristo Ivanov and the other colleagues that we make the prime minister and the chief prosecutor, and the head of KONPI - sole master of the state. Let's pick someone and end this saga with that. For 30 years, there has not been a chief prosecutor to please someone, because if he does not arrest the opponent, then he is not good", explained the leader of GERB.
"Leading agitation in Burgas seems to me an insult to the people, they remember when we built and paved “Thrace”, when we built the bridges to Sozopol. What should I agitate you for?" Borisov added.
According to him, the best choice for Minister of European Funds is Tomislav Donchev. Borisov wished to have more deputies so that the children's hospital in Burgas could be completed.
"I like to see how behind me, like a mine, from a bare meadow – it becomes a road, a hospital, a hall", emphasized the leader of GERB.
