Stanislav Anastassov, Member of Parliament from the Parliamentary Group of the MRF commenting on the meeting of the Consultative Committee on National Security:
“No consensus was achieved at the CCNS. As you have already heard, four parties expressed their opposition, and according to internal regulations this means that the text which was read was not supported, i.e. there is no consensus for it."
“I can calmly tell you the issue about which there was no consensus. This concerns who the aggressor is in this war, and who caused this war. And I think this is absolutely clear. In the specific case of the two ships, the government has sufficient information to indicate who caused it.”
“But they are the ones who have to do it. I believe that Bulgaria as a worthy member of NATO and the European Union deserves for the government to come out and openly declare this information. The Bulgarian citizens want answers, and they are the ones who can give them.”
“They're clear enough. I reiterate that Bulgaria as a member of the European Union and NATO deserves for the government to come out and openly indicate who caused this incident with the two ships. And I say it again, the government knows very well, they have to come out and say it.”
“We in the MRF will never allow Bulgaria to deviate from its path as member of the European Union and NATO.”
