The deficit in next year's budget should not exceed minus one percent. He expressed such an opinion on the air of “Day Live” the former Deputy Minister of Finance Lyubomir Datsov.
„People think that the deviation from a deficit of 3 percent is something normal, but in fact this is the maximum ceiling in case of worst times,”, Datsov also said.

„The hole in the budget does not just happen out of thin air. This is happening because of political decisions. To people who were in politics and claimed it was outrageously good. This also happened with the support of voters who stood behind the programs they put on the tables. I'm talking about governments of “Continuing the Change” and “Democratic Bulgaria” and the people who in the parliament voted on the budgets and made a large part of the proposals to get here”, explained the former finance minister.
He also comments on whether there are gaps in the system of the Ministry of the Interior. “The Ministry of Internal Affairs is one of the most ineffective systems in public administration. There is a government to catch and compare. There are people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs who do not know what they are doing, Lyubomir Datsov explained.

For the finale, he congratulated Ekaterina Zaharieva, who was approved as European Commissioner today.
