It is too early to talk about what will happen in the government - it is not normal to assume that there will be a great success or a great failure. This was explained to the Bulgarian National Radio by political scientist Georgi Prodanov.
He commented on what is happening in the BSP, where the election of a new chairman is imminent.
"The situation with the BSP is a projection of the past processes that developed in this party, and also of their suppression during the period of Kornelia Ninova's rule. There is an exceptional bouquet of candidates that reflect the different lobbies and different interests. However, most of these lobbies have not expressed disagreement with the BSP's participation in power. I don't think that whoever is elected chairman will do anything in a direction other than for the party to remain in the coalition".
Prodanov also analyzed the processes in another of the smaller partners in the ruling majority - ITN.
"ITN have never been a political entity. They continue to be a party entity – a small group that represents different interests and manages to reach the hearts and votes of certain voters. There is nothing rationally political. Their participation in power will certainly put them in a less favorable position from the point of view of their peripheral electorate. But if they manage to continue with their current rhetoric in government, they will come out the same way – so small and so unrepresentative".
Ideologies still exist, the political scientist noted.
"However, people expect quick results and the weakness of ideologies is the inability to provide quick solutions".
There is a need for the emergence of a new political project that will shift the layers, Prodanov noted, but he also pointed out that in recent years Bulgarian society has managed to build "immunity to the big false narratives and the rapid emergence of new political subjects".
"Subjects that are not so influential but have found their niche are more likely to appear.".
Bulgarian politicians have not learned the lesson that politics is a long track, the political scientist also pointed out in the program "Above All".
