PB will not vote for removing security of Borissov and Peevski

Progressive Bulgaria party, which won the elections, will not support the bills to remove the security guards of GERB leader Boyko Borissov and DPS chairman Delyan Peevski, it became clear from the declaration read in the plenary hall.

“The time when the Constitution was changed to harm a certain politician is gone. There is a procedure in the state according to which the security guards of endangered persons are appointed or removed, and we will not adopt laws concerning one or two people, even if these two until recently thought of themselves as omnipotent and forced the institutions to fulfil their personal wishes,” said Anton Kutev.

The declaration points out that removing the security guards is the duty of legitimate state bodies. “We, through our political will and wisdom, will force these bodies to work solely in the interest of citizens,” the MP added.

The parliament rejected the proposal of “Democratic Bulgaria” to establish a temporary inquiry commission to establish the facts surrounding discrepancies in the declared property status of Delyan Peevski. This also happened with the proposal of DPS for a commission to investigate unregulated influence of the “Capital” circle and publisher Ivo Prokopiev. The decisions were reached after 129 MPs from “Progressive Bulgaria” abstained, BNR reporter Maria Fileva informed.
