HOT: » Assessing the Legacy of Bulgaria's "Denkov" Cabinet: Achievements, Failures, and What Comes Next
Building highways and sport halls, catching criminals, building more sport halls – Bulgaria's Prime Minister is a real workaholic, indeed.
Alas, with presidential elections emerging on the horizon, journalists and politicians have been constantly bothering the Prime Minister with stupid questions that do not have anything to do with sport halls. The poor man has been forced to declare he will never talk to the media again on several occasions.
As the elections in the fall are coming closer, Borisov will surely be bombarded with more and more stuff he does not care about, so here is a couple of suggestions that might come in handy:
A good leader should always be able to delegate. Actually, some delegate everything. However, Borisov is too much of a perfectionist to leave his media appearances to aides. What if a blunder comes out?
Cloning the Prime Minister would be a brilliant idea – not only will we able to see him explaining about the new highway on all TV channels simultaneously, but a new cabinet in which all Ministers are Boyko Borisovs could be finally constituted.
Unfortunately, the above option is very difficult, since scientists are still unable to achieve it – especially Bulgarian scientists, whom the financial crisis has left without any equipment (or salaries).
Finally, Borisov may resort to the good old dictator trick and hire doppelgangers. While "Borisovs" are being tortured by impudent journalists, Borisov will finally have time to take care of his real responsibilities – "building" highways, cutting ribbons at official ceremonies and playing soccer.

Hardly anything could be said in defense of the new government's ideological profile, which is quite blurry; at the same time much can be disputed about its future "pro-European" stance.
Look who is lurking again behind the corner – the tandem of Advent International and Deutsche Bank, respectively the buyer of the Bulgarian Telecom Company in 2004 and the advisor of the Bulgarian government in the sweetest deal of the past decade, seem t
We have seen many times this circus which is being played out during the entire week and it only shows one thing - there is no need of a caretaker government in Bulgaria.
You have certainly noticed how many times President Rosen Plevneliev used the phrase “a broad-minded person” referring to almost every member of his caretaker government.
