According to the constitution of the Republic of Bulgaria, the president sets the date. I couldn’t understand why not on March 28, but on April 4. People must have a normal electoral process. There are people throughout the pandemic who are concerned. This was said by Deputy Prime Minister and IMRO Leader Krassimir Karakachanov
Krassimir Donchev Karakachanov is Deputy Prime Minister for Public Order and Security in the study of “Panorama” in BNT regarding the date of the elections.
When the host asked him why the IMRO did not appear in the consultations with President Karakachanov, he replied: “I know the Bulgarian reality and I am clear that everything I say in those consultations will happen as the president has decided.”
Regarding voting abroad, the IMRO leader replied: “I don’t know why it is suggested that Bulgarians abroad cannot vote. In the EU, you can open sections on how many Bulgarians they want there. What you are trying To launch the MRF is to open sections indiscriminately everywhere. This means a foreign country to organize the Bulgarian elections and appoint the deputies in the Bulgarian parliament. No one is against Bulgarians abroad to vote. “
Karakachanov categorically rejected the postal vote: “How is fairness guaranteed in this process?”
As for electronic and automatic voting, he pointed out that this practice is beginning to be abolished in several European countries: “This is political chewing gum with which the opposition parties are doing public relations.”
On the issue of Macedonia, the deputy prime minister said: “The issue of Macedonia is strategic for Bulgaria. We cannot agree with what is happening in North Macedonia. This is a matter of principle. 84% of Bulgarians are against compromising Bulgarian history “. According to him, the realistic result is to respect the Macedonian neighborhood agreement: “The agreements must be honored.”
He recalled that many people in the RSM identify as Bulgarians, despite the repression in the former Yugoslavia. Karakachanov pointed out our country’s good neighbor policy: “Bulgaria did not oppose when Macedonia wanted to join NATO. The Zaev government seeks a compromise. But when you commit to them, they see it as a weakness. Bulgaria must explain that Macedonia it cannot continue to instill hatred towards Bulgarians and everything Bulgarian through its educational system. We want them to create an identity as long as the conditions exist for it. “
The IMRO leader added: “We have not closed the RSM door. We said: ‘Adjust your policy.’ Bulgaria has good will, but the entry of South Macedonia into the EU cannot be at the expense of Bulgaria.”
On the subject of the army, Karakachanov explained: “The army has not spent anything outside the budget. The costs we incur are related to modernization projects. The Bulgarian army is the most neglected institution. The money spent is not at cost. of loans, nor at the cost of the fight against the coronavirus. My goal was not only to increase income, but also to modernize the army, and not at the expense of the salaries of the military. “
