"Do not allow Bulgarian politics to depend on four text messages and four people who are not in this hall." This is how Prime Minister Kiril Petkov addressed the MPs during the debates on the vote of no confidence in the National Assembly.
According to him, the people behind the vote were the chairman of GERB Boyko Borisov, MRF MP Delyan Peevski, sanctioned under the global "Magnitsky Act", the Russian ambassador to Bulgaria Eleonora Mitrofanova and the leader of ITN Slavi Trifonov. "Borissov fears that justice will come to him as well. Peevski also fears that his companies will not receive the billions agreed with someone else in this room. Mitrofanova is not so scary and you may not listen to her for everything she tells you," the Prime Minister said. He added that the real reason for ITN to leave the ruling coalition was not the topic of relations between Bulgaria and North Macedonia, but the funds requested by the party for the regional ministry.
