” We have stated very clearly that Delyan Peevski should not be in any government. The judicial reform must be completed and the state must finally be governed by laws, not by phone calls.
That's what he said on “This Morning“ on bTV Asen Vassilev, candidate for MP from PP-DB. According to him, there can be a coalition with GERB if the anti-corruption laws are adopted first and Boyko Borisov is not prime minister.
„ Before we start arranging the cabinet, GERB must prove two things – that they got rid of Peevski's influence in their party and finally, after four years of attempts, the judicial reform started”, Vassilev said.
„GERB do not want to adopt three anti-corruption laws. This one-man race for Attorney General must also be stopped. This is not normal and there are options how to have more than one participant”, pointed out Asen Vassilev.
„We saw that the paper that is signed by GERB means nothing. When the rotation started, the idea was to get all this legislation passed. 60 were adopted, these three were not, and they became the bone of contention and GERB blamed their own Prime Minister Maria Gabriel, only for these laws not to be adopted, Vassilev recalled.
In his words, GERB did not adopt the three laws because Delyan Peevski does not allow them and because they are afraid of anti-corruption legislation in Bulgaria.
„If „Revival“ or the BSP, for example, support a law that is meaningful, I have no problems accepting their support for meaningful legislation,”, said the PP-DB MP candidate.
