You should ask Borisov and Petkov, but it is quite possible that there have been no conversations between them for 2 weeks already. However, both have serious commitments in recent weeks. But keep in mind that this parliamentary majority has been functioning for 9 months now, they know their stuff.
This comment was made by Vladislav Panev from PP-DB in the bTV studio. He will not attend today’s talks.
The leaders and Academician Denkov will be present, at least they will not have to call on the phone to consult one or another decision.
First, we both have a lot of time for negotiations and we don’t. If we look at the president’s schedule – we have about 12 days until maybe next Wednesday. As the mandate will be served this Wednesday at the earliest. Which means there isn’t much time to waste, Panev calculated.
The talks should have started from the management program and what will be done in the next 9 months and how the regulators will be elected. If we find out about this, the names of the ministers should not be a stumbling block, said Panev.
Ministers are not a secondary issue. rather – if it is clear what Minister X’s department will do in the coming months, then the name of the minister should not hinder the negotiations. Otherwise, it will turn out that they quarreled about posts.
This is not an offer, rather in the realm of a joke, Borisov likes to joke, Panev commented on Borisov’s last offer from Friday – GERB to take all the ministers, while the Foreign Ministry and the regulators remain for PP-DB.
But I don’t think that this should be the guiding principle, added the MP from PP-DB.
50:50 is not exactly a pie-splitting, but rather a mechanism for who is responsible for regulatory appointments, they should be not politicians but experts with guarantees of their integrity. Regulators should not be clubs, but should work for the people, added Panev.
Asked if GERB would propose DPS experts for the regulators, Panev answered: It depends on the experts’ qualities. If they meet the characteristic of integrity, of not picking up the phone on this or that what to do, then whether the DPS offers them, it can.
There is a fundamental difference between governing independently, as Borisov did, who made decisions alone, and governing with such a parliamentary majority and the prime minister, regardless of whether his name is Denkov or Gabriel, has to comply with the parties in the National Assembly, Panev explained on Borissov’s words that the prime minister is “obedient” are the occasion.
The worst case scenario is to have a government that can’t do anything for the country. Then comes the election.
The good scenario is an agreement and enough reforming government to have enough reforming actions of the parliament, added Panev.
We can call it anything, but there has to be a written agreement, he snapped.
9 months we function well or poorly in one way. Until now, it was not a real coalition – the government was dominated by us, and the commissions in the National Assembly – on a mirror basis. It doesn’t really matter what it’s called, it’s important to get the job done, added the former leader of the Green Movement.
I hope that the function of the DPS will be minimal or non-existent, but the regulators, for which a qualified majority is needed, should be discussed with them, commented Panev. He had nothing against talks with the BSP, as well as with anyone who is rational.
