The 2026 budget was too social, I compromised because of the protesters. This is what the chairman of “There is such a people” Slavi Trifonov said on his personal Facebook profile. With him were the MPs from ITN Toshko Yordanov, Stanislav Balabanov, Dragomir Petrov and Alexander Valchev.
“I had to make a compromise with myself when the budget was being made, because of those exactly like those who protested – young healthy workers, etc., so that there would be money for them. Now the budget against which they protested has fallen, there is no budget and they don’t have that money.” commented Trifonov.
The “Zhelyazkov” cabinet resigned
“From “Continuing the change – Democratic Bulgaria” they think of us as peasants and swindlers, they think of us as something more. Why are there such scumbags in a small country like Bulgaria – I can’t answer this question.” Trifonov also said.
According to Trifonov, there will be no uncontrollable price speculation after Bulgaria joins the Eurozone, because there are regulatory bodies.
The budget was failed mainly by PP-DB and the consequences will be borne by them, Toshko Yordanov said.
Regarding his words to the young doctors earlier this year during a meeting of the parliamentary committee on health care, Toshko Yordanov said that he considers the “intonation and slightly aggressive tone” with which he said them to be a mistake.
What is the “diagnosis” of political tension
“I’ll repeat that to the point – they can’t ask to be paid more than their teacher. Raising those salaries has to be across the health system because nurses and paramedics are paid abysmal salaries, and in contrast – they’re in the field. In this budget, they would get the money they want.” Yordanov also said.
“There are elections coming up and I hope the young generation will have enough sense to make the right choice,” Alexander Valchev pointed out.
