Talks about linking the funds under the Recovery and Resilience Plan with the need for reforms in the prosecution and the ousting of Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev are untenable. This has been stated at a briefing by the Prosecutor's Office, which believes that these statements were a justification for the failures of the legislature and the executive power. "We are witnessing statements by politicians who suggest that the prosperity of the Bulgarian state is directly dependent on the personality of the Prosecutor General. As a result, instead of seeking solutions to real problems, society's focus has been shifted to the Prosecutor General," the Prosecutor's Office pointed out.

Geshev's team claims that the issue of linking the money under the Recovery Plan with reforms in the Prosecutor's Office was raised not by the European Commission, but by the Bulgarian caretaker government.
