The ruling party has delivered on most of its promises in terms of economy, expert Vladimir Karolev said. 90 percent of the pre-election economy program has been implemented, he pointed out amid high-pitched expectations for governmental reshuffle.

Bulgaria boasts steady economic growth over the last two years and since the start of the current government's tenure. This is one of the highest growths not only in Europe but also across the globe, Karolev underlined. According to him, Sunday's sharp speech of the Prime Minister Saxe-Coburg that lashed some of his party's parliamentary leaders and heralded replacements of ministers showed no frustration over economic policies.

Economy expert Karolev pointed out that corruption in the privatization has been strangled and no one accuses the ruling Simeon II National Movement that it sells state-owned companies to cronies.

However, Karolev criticized the incumbents that they tolerate the non-transparent action of some MPs and ministers.
