The coalition ended when “We continue the change” refused Lubomir Karimanski to be head of the BNB
After “The Remembrance Continues” Lyubomir Karimanski did not agree to be the head of the BNB, Slavi stopped picking up Kiril Petkov’s phone. This is what the Prime Minister says interview for “Capital”.
“It simply came to our notice then [кандидат] of ITN or “Continuing Change”, or any other. Our problem was that there were facts in media publications that worried us – that he, as the executive director of Investbank, had signed cash payments in particularly large amounts. And even if he didn’t steal them himself, the risk of this person signing whatever he is told is high. And then, when we said that we did not agree with this man, we have since really stopped the talks, “Petkov said.
Slavi “stopped picking up the phone and told Toshko Yordanov not to come to the coalition council. And only Balabanov and some other rotating people started coming. As at these coalition councils, Balabanov said that he could only listen, not make decisions. This was the end of communication, and the only reason we continued to do so was because, first, we hadn’t allowed any cash flows to go wrong, so we didn’t compromise. “Because we didn’t know if Slavi was crazy – illogical or 100% corrupt. We weren’t sure which of the two,” he said.
