The old Roman, Ottoman and Bulgarian bridges are still standing. All over Bulgaria for thousands and hundreds of years. In Tsarevo in two years the same bridges are falling. After taking them down in 2023 with 4 victims, they built a new bridge and now it has fallen again. Who is to blame, who is right - it is clear that they have not learned their lessons, everything has been the same as before.

This is what he commented on "Facebook" Kaloyan Metodiev.

For today's Bulgaria and all of us, it is shameful and disgraceful in the era of high technology, portable highways and complex infrastructure facilities, to sacrifice and destroy because of simplicity, sheepishness, corruption, incompetence and a wrong management model.

For me, the conclusion from the comparison of the old and new bridges is: the need to change the administrative division. This debate must begin. It will be a small step with a big effect. The more mayors and small municipalities, the more dependencies.

Municipalities must be radically consolidated. A new division to cut through local feudalization, dependencies on party, oligarchic, ministerial and deputy whims.

265 municipalities, of which 90% cannot support themselves is a political and socio-economic absurdity. Continuing this model only guarantees misfortune, problems and declining development. Including election fraud.

Bridges should lead to working structures, not to destruction and death.
