227 settlements currently in Bulgaria live in the Middle Ages. In the middle of winter they have no water. They fill tubes, wash themselves with jugs, go to the toilet with buckets. Among them there is an entire large regional city – Pleven. Hospitals, kindergartens, nursing homes, companies... The situation is beyond words. Because of the shame in front of the rest of the world.
This is what he warned on "Facebook" Kaloyan Metodiev.
I have been in deserts in Africa and the Middle East where there are no rivers and it rains once a year, but there was no problem with water. I have been in a country at war and there was always water. I have been to Jerusalem, where they purify water and catch the leaks at night by the sound of the drops in order to remove them in the morning. Pacific islands have been purifying salt water for decades. In Heraclea Sintika next to Petrich in the 4th century BC there was a bathhouse and a waterworks. In the same territory we live in today.
Bulgaria has no problem with water. There is a problem with its management. There are specific culprits for the stolen water, the fake repairs, the missing pipes. Even during the water crisis in Pernik in 2019, no one took responsibility – prime minister, ministers, mayors, water and sanitation companies, owners of private hydropower plants… The virtual pipeline remains. Society forgot, waved its hand… and Shumen, Lovech, Pleven, hundreds of towns and villages followed. Without radical politics and political will, the problem will not be solved!
Our people cannot live in a country that is rich in rivers, lakes, where it snows and rains all year round, and people live like cattle, which has no analogue in the world.
The official ministers of Regional Development and Environment and Water should have been fired yesterday! The plumbing holding was promoted to a director. Responsible mayors held accountable. Municipal councils that have remained silent are complicit. Do not submit to injustice, to what they do to you. Don't be silent! You are not cattle!
