President: No reshuffle can save the government from resigning

During a visit in the city of Plovdiv on July 16, President Rumen Radev said no reshuffle could save the government from resigning. He called on the protesters to continue in the same spirit, because he said their protest was not social and political, but for morality in politics and government.

Minutes ago, the surprising extraordinary visit of the head of state to Plovdiv ended. He met with students studying Graphic Design and Photography at the Academy of Arts.

On the main street in the city, he provoked a palette of reactions. On one side were his supporters, who greeted him with applause, and on the other side were his critics, who raised placards demanding his resignation.

The two groups entered with a brief verbal confrontation, but no tension ensued.

The President then met with the two groups and said it made no sense for the cabinet to brag and be stubborn in front of the mirror. "The fear of exposing the monstrous abuses of this government, the fear of retribution from interrupting electoral manipulation, is completely understandable, but it is irretrievably late."

The head of state also confirmed that he did not know MP Delyan Peevski personally.

Rumen Radev, President of the Republic of Bulgaria: Bulgaria is waking up, the Bulgarians are on the streets, as you can see, chanting:” Mutri (thick necks) out!” It is the young people who have restored our hope, because they have made it clear that they will not tolerate the humiliation of ignorance, impudence, corruption. These young people are aware of their mission, of their generation - to end the Transition by expelling the mafia from power and from the Prosecutor’s office. I do not know Peevski, nor Dogan, nor Bozhkov, etc. Someone else gave, in this case, the prime minister gave huge public procurement contracts for billions to Peevski. Someone else smoked cigars, someone else handed out banks. Not my government, he said.

A large-scale protest is planned for this evening in Plovdiv, demanding the resignation of the government and the Chief Prosecutor Ivan Geshev.
