Kiril Petkov: If GERB wants a Euro-Atlantic direction, it should distinguish itself from Peevski

This act was not against the man Rosen Zhelyazkov, but against the chairman, who systematically violated the rules of this National Assembly. The reason is that he was following the orders of Delyan Peevski and Boyko Borisov, who cheered him on from the front row.

Such a comment was made by the co-chairman of We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria (WCC-DB) Kiril Petkov after 129 MPs supported the requested resignation of Zhelyazkov in the plenary hall, BGNES reported.

Mr Peevski and Mr Borisov do not own this country, and if GERB wants to have a Euro-Atlantic direction, they will have to get rid of their dependence on Peevski and the institutions, and the rules in the country should not be subject to any person, he also stated Petkov.

I am sure that if Mr. Rosen Zhelyazkov had acted of his own free will, the violations would not have been committed, Petkov concluded.

He did not answer questions about the new coalition. /BGNES
