We implement policies, we do not engage in gossip, said Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov at the opening of the government meeting. He called on the parliament to restore the constitutionally prescribed normal functioning of cooperation between institutions.


According to the prime minister, there is instability in the balance between institutions. “This does not allow the formation of bodies related to the protection of national security and the diplomatic service. This is a very dangerous precedent, because the balance, which is prescribed by the spirit of the Constitution and the laws, is not just unbalanced, but paralyzed,” Zhelyazkov emphasized without mentioning the presidential institution.

The prime minister invited young people who participated in extinguishing the fire in Sungurlare to the meeting. He expressed his gratitude for their efforts, and the volunteers were applauded by the ministers.
