„The whole society is outraged about the replacement of Geshev with Sarafov, and we wanted the Minister of Justice to be heard in court. To our great surprise, this hearing was blocked with the votes of GERB, MRF and „Vazrazhdane“.
This was said by Kiril Petkov from „We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria“ on the sidelines of the National Assembly. Yesterday afternoon, the coalition asked the minister to come to Legal Affairs Committee. Petkov explained:
„There, the hearing was blocked again with the votes of GERB, MRF and „abstention“ of „Vazrazhdane“. This shows two very worrying trends – what facts are hidden and why we don’t want transparency on this topic.“
„Why is GERB-UDF using alternative majorities to block important things for society?“, Petkov added. He added that „We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria-Democratic Bulgaria“ had no problem with GERB-UDF having more committees „to be able to control the government in the first rotation“. However, he pointed out:
„There is no way this parliament can continue if GERB continues to resort to floating majorities. This is not just a warning, but a call that they are bringing a huge risk into the political system.“
„Using the floating majority with MRF and „Vazrazhdane“is a problem for us,“, Petkov stressed.
