“The coalition we formed in December is undoubtedly complex. It includes four political entities, four parliamentary groups with radically different ideologies. We have no illusions that this will be an easy coalition. But at the moment this is the only possible coalition. in this Parliament.
So I am convinced that she will remain in power for a long time, and each coalition partner must be clearly aware of the responsibility it bears when entering the government, “said National Assembly Speaker Nikola Minchev on BNT.
How is it possible for MPs to pull on June 1 and show obscene gestures on June 2?
“Unfortunately, these absolutely rare episodes have happened in the parliament. Let’s go back to the event on June 1.
Then Iskren Mitev made a speech in which he did not mention a name, but a Russian classical literary hero. Kostadinov recognized himself as this hero and set out to defend his honor. However, Kostadinov builds his image entirely on provocation, and in this case a small provocation, in which he is not mentioned by name, throws him off balance.
Extraordinary! Mass fight in the National Assembly VIDEO
It is not pleasant that this is happening in the plenary hall, especially in front of children. Both MPs endured their punishments, “Minchev commented.
“Itzo Hazarta showed his attitude to the action taken by GERB-UDF, to raise pre-prepared sheets with the words” Resignation “. Parliament is a body in which resignation can be requested from the rostrum.
This is not the best way to ask for resignation, nor is it the best way to respond. And he suffered the punishment. This page is closed, “Minchev said.
“Do you justify from” We continue the change “(PP) for these two cases, do they help put the chairman of the National Assembly (NA) in a position to justify the unjustified?”, Asked the presenter Boyko Vassilev.
“I am not trying to justify every case. I can definitely say that the PP does not put me in an awkward position. For the most part, the PP brings a new way of making politics.
And he is, by the way, what the Bulgarian people want, which is why he chose a formation without political experience. This political style, which we are trying to impose, which will become more and more, is to convince our political opponents that they are not right with arguments and without insults, with fewer political slogans, “Minchev said.
“Where are your laws for changing Bulgaria?” Vassilev asked.
“Our legislative program is moving at a pace below what we and I personally want, but there are also objective factors. Before a law is introduced, it goes to expert discussion, to coalition discussion. It takes more time than we want,” he explained. Minchev.
Who wrote for BG “Magnitsky”?
“I wouldn’t call it a bill. It’s a draft that leaked out of nowhere, without it being clear who was behind it. I can’t know. It’s certainly not a bill that entered the National Assembly.
This is not a law. This is a draft. It is not clear at what stage of its development it is. This is definitely not a project that deserves serious discussion. Let there be a project from the Council of Ministers (CoM), or on the initiative of an MP, then we will talk seriously about such legislation, “Minchev said.
“As the grandson of a man who has been repressed for his beliefs and even killed, is he happy with how the state has taken care of the refugees?” Vassilev asked.
“In the big picture, what the state has done is not small. Even the initial plan, which was implemented with their accommodation in hotels, was a very good way. Then there was a difficulty in moving to the second stage, moving them from hotels. by sea to the interior of the country. There are inevitably difficulties. I believe that what the Ukrainian refugees received is certainly on par, “Minchev said.
About the war
“The Bulgarian parliament adopted a declaration on the first day of the war, in which we strongly condemned the actions of the Russian Federation aimed at Ukraine. We called for a return to international law, an end to hostilities.
This happened even before the leaders of the European Union (EU) met on the evening of the same day.
Subsequently, there were hesitations regarding the provision of military assistance, but in the end I myself supported a wider range of military assistance, but I also respect the right of every Member of Parliament to vote according to his convictions. We see from the statements of Prime Minister Kiril Petkov that we will repair 80 tanks, which we will return to Ukraine, “Minchev said.
He also commented on the friction between President Rumen Radev and the Prime Minister.
“I am from the PP and in this sense I am in solidarity with the prime minister, but there is a normal opposition of opinions between different institutions. I would not say that such sharp contradictions are observed,” Minchev commented.
