Ognyan Minchev: Boyko Borisov is not a naive person to believe that he can be prime minister again  - 1

< strong>Boyko Borisov is not a naive person to believe that after what happened in the last 4 years it is possible to become prime minister again, especially in a complex coalition government. It is a tool for participation in negotiations, for bargaining. We have reached a situation where we cannot afford a normal political coalition and a normal opposition. PP must decide if they are an anti-system party. "Revival" for example, they do not hide that they want to change the foreign policy direction of the country, others who say that this political system does not suit them, such as the advisors of President Radev and "There is such a people", are also clear.

This is what he said in the show "Face to Face" on bTV, political scientist Ognyan Minchev in connection with GERB's insistence that party leader Boyko Borisov be prime minister in a possible regular government.

"Continuing the change" together with "Democratic Bulgaria" they enjoy 15% of the trust of the Bulgarian voters, and they behave almost as if they were on the verge of a 2/3 majority. The Bulgarian judicial system needs a serious overhaul, but one party cannot presume to say what will happen in the whole process. Bulgaria needs a regular government to guarantee the geopolitical orientation of the country, fight corruption and do this step by step so that the country can be governed. The status quo must accept the fact that it must part with some of the impunity with which it operated until 2020. The forces of change must accept that change will happen in stages, step by step, this is normal in all democracies , commented Ognyan Minchev.

He defined the co-chairman's immunity request as "Continuing Change" Kiril Petkov as "part of the backstage of politics".

In my opinion, the decision of "Democratic Bulgaria" to negotiate is a sign of a normalization in view of the impossibility of casting a regular government. "We continue the change" they continue to advocate the old thesis that if someone does not agree with their cordon sanitaire declaration, they will not negotiate. Politics is a profession, it has certain arguments. If I don't work, but I want to receive a salary, I won't be able to, and this is exactly what has been happening in Bulgarian politics in the last few years. There are many arguments not to do something, but responsibility requires politicians to create a government, Minchev said.

We have reached a situation where we cannot afford a normal political coalition and a normal opposition. There are very large parties and a growing number of anti-establishment forces. "Revival" for example, they do not hide that they want to change the foreign policy direction of the country, others who say that this political system does not suit them, such as the advisors of President Radev and "There is such a people", are also clear. "We continue the change" they have to decide whether they are an anti-system party and do not want to accept this political system or they would like to accept this system and work for its normalization, the political analyst stressed.
