Radev’s former chief of staff: I resigned and affected his ego – Society

We had a conversation with the president, to whom he told me that we could not continue like this, and I decided to resign. The specific occasion was a Borovets celebration, which I attended to mark Ninova’s re-election as president of the BSP. She herself invited me to this celebration and I accepted the invitation without hesitation, as I am an adult and I am responsible for my actions. This was shared in the study of “Face to Face” on bTV by former Rumen Radev chief of staff, Kaloyan Metodiev.

“I did not mention to the president that I had an invitation from Ninova. I was invited in a personal capacity, there were no labels or plates, it was a private celebration, not a party. There were different people there. The event was not public, it was not announced. It was a normal celebration, which takes place in every home, in a restaurant at a table … it was quite normal ”, added Metodiev.

“Obviously I have affected his ego with his resignation, but these are the facts and I hope this clears the matter up, because there has been all kinds of speculation on the subject,” he added.

The head of the president’s office has resigned

We had disagreements with the president on some issues such as constitutional changes, personnel policy, because I want young and modern people, our way of speaking, because a politician must give hope. Here, today’s address to the nation had to resonate to have a result. As for constitutional changes, Radev cannot work on a new constitution without the participation of the parties, because we are a parliamentary republic, Metodiev emphasized.

“I cannot comment on such a thing. She (Ninova, BR) has always maintained positions of principle with regard to the presidential institution,” he answered the question of whether there is a conflict between Radev and the BSP leader and stressed that the politics according to him should be more open and more democratic.

Rumen Radev vetoed some of the changes in the Electoral Code

Protests are a real means of expressing democracy, but violence is unacceptable. It must have only a peaceful character to attract the periphery. For me, the protest must be legitimate, moderate and consistent in some way, concluded the former head of the head of state’s office.
