Boyko Borisov Votes with a Paper Ballot: Is there a Functioning Machine, or Have They Run Out?
Boyko Borisov chose to cast his vote with a paper ballot in Bankya today.
Bulgaria’s PM Boyko Borisovis considering removing the official post Minister without Portfolio after the resignation of Bozhidar Dimitrov.
"There are no suitable candidates for the post at the moment,” Borisov said Thursday, the Bulgarian News Agency has reported.
The prime minister has explained that the functions of the Minister without Portfolio, who is responsible for the Bulgarians abroad, could be taken by another member of the cabinet.
Bozhidar Dimitrov, the former Bulgarian Minister without Portfolio, resigned December 19 after it was revealed that he worked as an agent for the former Communist State Security.
At the beginning of the week, Borisov said that he would keep the post of the Diaspora Minister because it was not invented especially for Dimitrov.
The former minister has proposed Rosen Ivanov, the head of the Agency for Bulgarian Abroad, for his replacement. However, the proposal was not commented by Borisov.
Dimitrov’s resignation was involved in the recent scandal which broke out after it was revealed that 33 Bulgarian Ambassadors have worked as collaborators or agents for the former Communist State Security.
The revelations caused a political turmoil in Bulgaria, as Prime Minister Boyko Borisov firmly pledging to fire the discredited diplomats, while President Georgi Parvanovopposed this option.
