"Perhaps he was busy. I don't know the President's schedule", GERB leader Boyko Borisov said with regard to President Rumen Radev's absence from the oath-taking ceremony for the newly-elected Constitutional Court judges. In his words, Desislava Atanasova and Borislav Belazelkov were elected in a transparent procedure, while in a similar situation the head of state makes a unilateral decision – "without hearings, without absolutely anything."
