The leader of GERB told the true story about that broken table – no one remembered the name of the Minister of Health and Kiril Petkov exploded
“The story with the table was before assembly, let Denkov not lie. Then it was all flowers and roses, coffee, cappuccino, whiskey and other things like that.” This is how Boyko Borisov commented to “24 Chasa” Nikolay Denkov’s interview with “Free Europe”. In it, the former prime minister said: “Every day was a struggle. This idyll they’re trying to put on us like a fog – how we used to get along so much is complete nonsense. That’s the truth. The broken table story you heard, I I was there. Kiril Petkov broke the table in Borisov’s office because Borisov started telling some lies. Every day we fought to be able to follow the path that was important to us.”
In fact, the story of Petkov’s angry outburst was first told by Borisov in March. Then the rotation negotiations were going on and PP-DB wanted a leadership meeting, not the women’s team.
Borisov explained why he did not participate: “GERB has one leader, I don’t accept meeting with 5-6 people and then listening to them croaking on TV. I don’t want such a meeting, because they behave rudely, and Kiril Petkov breaks bottles and glasses on the table. I don’t want such a meeting”. And yesterday, contacted after the interview of Academician Denkov, the leader of GERB told his version of the story. That was it
one of the first meetings, even before assembly. It took place not in his office, but in that of the head of the National Assembly
About 20 people attended, discussing health care.
“And when it came to the question of the Minister of Health, Kiril hit a bottle on the table in front of Hristo (Ivanov) and Atanas (Atanasov) and broke the glass on the table. Then he came and apologized and said he wouldn’t explode like that again,” Borisov said.
According to the details added by him, Petkov did not know the name of the minister they were proposing, that’s why
Lena Borislavova took out her laptop and read the name
“The man was not known to anyone, but we agreed,” Borisov recreated the situation. After a while, however, he asked again what his name was. Kirill had forgotten, looked at Lena and she opened the computer again. Then I said that if they don’t know who they are proposing, then someone orders them to say who it is and to meet me with him to negotiate directly”, he explained. And then it was Petkov who exploded.
Despite everything, Borisov again talked about the possibility of working together again.
“Everything depends on PP-DB whether we will talk after the elections
They are not reacting to the ministers who were in Radev’s offices, they are not reacting against the current minister of foreign affairs, but they are reacting against the person I took from them. I made Dani Mitov the deputy chairman of GERB as a bridge to PP-DB”, commented Borisov.
The PP-DB responded with the same later, with Hristo Ivanov explaining that whether they will be able to work together again depends on “whether GERB will allow it to be included in an assembly that Peevski is currently programming with this composition and hidden architecture of the caretaker government, which includes Peevski, the prosecutor’s office and Radev”.
