The problem of the Bulgarian government in recent decades is that there is no representation of experts who can really help this country. The party-political elite completely controls the economy and all spheres without being prepared for it, Branimir Botev, President of the European League for Economic Cooperation told BNR. “That is why the young people are protesting now. They want future for themselves and are looking for the opportunity to demonstrate the skills they have acquired. Some of them come from abroad where they have proven themselves in a competitive environment free from connections and political appointments and want to receive similar chance in Bulgaria as well”, Branimir Botev went on to say.
