The oligarchic dependencies may be easily overcome without convening a Great National Assembly. This is what President Rosen Plevneliev told journalists regarding the calls for convening a Great National Assembly. The Head of State called on the people to avoid hasty decisions and emphasized that before doing so a consensus must be reached on what amendments of the constitution should be made. “Currently Bulgarian laws are European and obeying them, observing the rules and ensuring an efficient law-administration system do not depend on a Great National Assembly,” Rosen Plevneliev emphasized.

“Nobody can convince me that elections are something bad, that this most democratic tool of the rule-of-law state may be “harmful.” No, it cannot be harmful – this is the only tool to resolve insoluble conflicts and to unravel the most complicated knot”, the Head of State said in an address to the nation on the current situation and the public discontent in the country.

My responsibility as a Head of State is to continue to seek a dialogue and consensus on finding a solution of the current political crisis in Bulgaria. I am convinced that the situation requires that all institutions and leaders of political parties show the same responsible attitude. This is what President Rosen Plevneliev, who received David Lidington, UK Minister of State for Europe, said today.

The solution of the current crisis is not in conducting a revolution, but in making consistent correct steps in the correct direction. This is what President Rosen Plevneliev said at a meeting he held with the famous Polish economist Leshek Balcerovich, who is on a visit to Bulgaria. Although the political parties need “a pressure exerted from the opposite side,” the demands put forward should be concrete and precisely formulated. This is what was emphasized at the meeting. However, there is no consensus and dialogue in Bulgaria, the Head of State said.
