Nikolay Hadjigenov before FACTS: Did we expect something meaningful from Atanasova and Belazelkov in the Constitutional  - 1

Did we expect anything meaningful from Desislava Atanasova and Borislav Belazelkov in the Constitutional Court (CS)? The CS itself is a very good thing. Ten years ago, I wrote an article about why our Supreme Court is a meaningless court. And this is because the political quota in this Constitutional Court is… Desislava Atanasova… There were others before. When choosing members of the SC, professional qualities, moral, ethical and so on are ignored. There are criteria in the Central Committee - people of the president, people of the biggest political power. And when that's the case, you get Desislava Atanasova and Borislav Belazelkov. This is the result. This Constitutional Court and with this political quota in it – he was stillborn. And then we wonder why he makes such politically insane decisions. You can see how the people of the president, the people of GERB, voted. Borisov warned them on the morning of the voting day that they should be careful. This is what he announced to Lili Marinkova in the "FACTS" studio. and the show “Conversation“ lawyer Nikolay Hadzhigenov from civil association "We are coming".

„Where does the constitutional appeal remain… It doesn't make any sense in this form, because few people can submit it. But we hear that if allowed, the court would be overwhelmed with work. My, isn't that the point of court – to work, to be cargo. The other is denial of justice”, Khadzhigenov also shared.

“I do not see now that there are those who made the changes in the Constitution satisfied. They limited the president's choice in terms of a future cabinet and pushed themselves into a stalemate. Right, they limited the choice for a caretaker prime minister. And who will be next… Some time ago we held a legal conference to show all these illiterate "jurists" in the PP-DB, what a justice reform should look like. We have gathered the entire elite of practitioners in our country, but they don't care, because they understand things, no one has seen the Courthouse from the inside, but only from the outside,“ added the guest.
