“The prime minister has become hostage to his coalition partners – the United Patriots – as represented by the leaders of the nationalist parties Valeri Simeonov of the National Front for the Salvation of Bulgaria (NFSB), and Krasimir Karakachanov of the VMRO,” said, for the BNR, lawyer, political analyst and Roma activist Orhan Tahir, who has been living in Belgium for years.
In his words the VMRO and NFSB have taken advantage of the protests, targeted chiefly against GERB party and the prosecutor general, to obtain more power within the existing coalition, and have been able to do so.
In Orhan Tahir’s opinion the government will finish off its term of office, but the United Patriots will carry more weight.
It was precisely Valeri Simeonov that announced, after yesterday’s council meeting of the ruling coalition, that Boyko Borissov would remain as prime minister until the end of his term of office.
