Independent Balkan New Agency (15 July 2020)

The deputies of the “BSP for Bulgaria” Socialist Party parliamentary group submitted a motion of censure to the Bureau of the Parliament against Borissov’s 3rd Council of Ministers.

This is the fifth consecutive attempt by the opposition to overthrow the government. The issue of the motion of censure is once again related to corruption, but this time it coincided with the protests in Sofia and, since the beginning of the week, in various cities across the country.

Back in 2018, the Left had once again tried to overthrow the government of Boyko Borissov due to its failure in the fight against corruption. The remaining three efforts over the years have been related to security, health issues, as well as issues related to the environment and water.

“Our main problem in the fight against corruption, for which we have been fighting for 4 years continuously and consistently, was the fear of the people. Today, people have been liberated from fear on the streets of Bulgaria”, said BSP leader Corneli Ninova.

“What is different with this motion of censure is that we do not stop at the dozens of corruption scandals, but go on to reveal to the public the mechanisms, the network and the tentacles through which the Boyko Borissov government created a para-state to govern the actual state. It created the conditions for the mafia to dominate in Bulgaria”, Ninova stated.
