In terms of security and national priorities, we need to think and plan not just only for 2020, but for much further ahead.

Allow me to inform you that I shall not attend the scheduled swearing-in today of the last of the new members of the Constitutional Court.

The referendum is a test for democracy. The first democratic referendum in the history of Bulgaria is very important and it is the duty of politicians is to deal with it very responsibly. This referendum should be held in the interest of citizens. It will set the direction for future referendums – whether as a powerful tool of democracy for the voice of the people to be heard or referendums as a platform for political opposition and political battles.
