The parliamentary elections should have also given an answer to the question of who will prevail in the battle for DPS. The bastion of the party – Kardzhali, preferred the “new beginning”. However, Ahmed Dogan won victory in Razgrad and Silistra. The end or just the beginning of the clash for DPS are these elections discussed in "Offensive" on "New TV" the journalist Valeria Veleva. “This is a stage in the continuation of the war that is yet to break out, but the question of the influence of DPS has received its answer on the ground with the numbers – the difference between “DPS-New Beginning“ and APS is 100,000 votes, 30 MPs have Delyan Peevski's formation, and 19 have Ahmed Dogan's and Kardzhali's loss”, the journalist said.
In her words, the Alliance for Rights and Freedoms lost in Shumen because the leader of the list was Ceyhan Ibryamov. “He currently has three times less results than in the previous elections. But the question is: Where did Dogan go wrong? In my opinion, his big mistake, which is also reported by those close to him, is that he did not appear in the campaign. He did not lead the process in these elections, and people expected him”, Veleva pointed out and added that the APS lists were also weak.
The dispute about the excluded people from the DPS and the clash of the words of Delyan Peevski and Jevdet Chakarov, according to the journalist, will be resolved in court. “Because then, when Delyan Peevski and the six of the “bloody” letter, there is no document that the relevant body of the party voted. One such letter, written by the honorary chairman, is not properly worded”, she clarified.
„Anti-Peevsky front was not built. Perhaps if it had been, and if Ahmed Dogan had led it, the situation would be different now. But Dogan didn't do it“, noted Veleva.
„I believe that there cannot be a government of GERB-SDS and PP-DB. The behavior of “We Continue the Change“ I think it undermines such efforts. And one more thing - the testimonies of the former head of the "Customs" Agency came out, which are shocking. In them, Petya Bankova directly says that Asen Vasilev built a very serious corruption scheme in the agency and that he personally received money from Stefan Dimitrov. Also, that Boyko Rashkov received monthly money. This makes the PP-DB a toxic organization at the moment, she said.
