The manipulations that the referendum I proposed is against the euro are an insult to the intellect of Bulgarians. This was stated by President Rumen Radev, quoted by dariknews.bg.
"Scenarios are being staged in political circles that aim to stifle important topics in society", the head of state pointed out.
He stated that his goal is clear - for every Bulgarian citizen to be able to express his opinion on our readiness to adopt the single European currency in 2026.
"My proposal is already yielding results - finally debates have begun about our real readiness to adopt the euro next year. Finally, we heard from the mouths of Messrs. Peevski and Borisov the words "prices" and "need for control". Too late and under pressure," Radev pointed out.
The President vowed to continue to represent all Bulgarian citizens, including "the poor and the voiceless".
"I will refer the unprecedented violation of legality by the National Assembly in the person of its Speaker," he added.
