Bulgaria’s printed media accentuate on Friday on the latest voting at the UN Security Council. Bulgaria’s new nominee for the UN Security General Kristalina Georgieva placed last but one during the voting and was outrun by that country’s former nominee Irian Bokova. As a result, the Bulgarian Socialist Party and ABV demanded the resignation of Premier Borissov and his cabinet. Standard daily came up with the heading: UN Coalition Shakes Bulgaria’s Cabinet. However, Premier Borissov categorically answered that he would not hand in his resignation. Sega daily comments that Premier Borissov accuses former nominee Irina Bokova and the communist regime for Kristalina Georgieva’s failure to head the UN. The UN saga ended infamously, another heading of that newspaper informs. Duma daily commented that Borissov should resign and Georgieva should leave the European Commission.
With regard to the launching of the new European Border and Coast Guard Agency at Kapitan Andreevo border checkpoint on Thursday Trud daily warned that Bulgaria risked turning into Europe’s refugee camp. 24 Chassa daily informs that the budget of the new agency will amount to EUR 320 million per year. It will employ 1,500 people and will possess the necessary equipment and machinery to react promptly to any urgent situation.
Telegraph daily reveals alarming data of the Syndicate of Bulgarian Teachers with the Confederation of Independent Trade Unions in Bulgaria. According to that information, a total of 1,200 Bulgarian teachers left their country in the past ten years in search of a better paid job abroad. Some of them even started working as house keepers, the author of the article alarms. Capital daily is also worried about the huge disproportion between women and men in that profession. That problem is topical in other European countries as well. The newspaper informs that 85% of all European teachers in the secondary education are women. In 11 EU countries 90% of the teachers are female. In Bulgaria 94.4 of the teachers are women, Capital further writes.
The newspapers also inform that the names of Bulgarian citizens entered the subscription lists in support of Presidential nominees, but those people were not aware of that fact. The identities of BNT Director General and of a Bulgarian Constitutional Judge were stolen, 24 Chassa daily informs.
