Lena Borislavova: GERB cannot stand up to Peevski, and perhaps they don't want to

Today's vote by the majority in the legal committee is not a cause for joy. It is not a victory for the rule of law. It temporarily stopped an outrage, which would have been the concretization of Sarafov for 7 years in a procedure without competitors

Lena Borislavova: GERB cannot stand up to Peevski, and perhaps they don't want to  - 1

Today, the legal committee agreed on second reading to terminate the procedure for electing Sarafov, but rejected all other measures and texts that could prevent us from having a second Sarafov tomorrow. This was written on Facebook by Lena Borislavova from the PP.

"In addition, it rejected the texts that prevent Sarafov from returning as acting Prosecutor General.

A vote is coming up in the hall.

Today's vote by the majority in the legal committee is not a cause for joy. It is not a victory for the rule of law. It temporarily stopped an outrage, which would have been the concretization of Sarafov for 7 years in a procedure without competitors, but it did not deprive him of the opportunity to continue doing what he is currently doing.

This is not a real judicial reform. It is only a timid step to stop an outrageous permanent appointment.

GERB cannot stand up to Peevski, and perhaps they do not want to. That is why the negotiations with the DB did not continue.

But I guess there are no surprises. Unfortunately."
