With an address to the Bulgarian people on YouTube, the former chief prosecutor Ivan Geshev hinted at a possible political career. Announcing his resignation as prosecutor, he promised citizens "to continue the fight for truth and justice.”
"I made my choice - not to be silent and not to bow my head to injustice.
Today I speak for the last time as a magistrate, after I have followed the law and after thirty years of working for the people, I have resigned as a prosecutor.
I did it with the awareness that no prosecutor's office can fight corruption and theft when corruption and theft have become state policy.
That is why today I speak to the Bulgarians in Bulgaria - as I promised - with the clear understanding that political problems are solved by political means.
Today I promise you only one thing - to continue the fight for truth and justice in our Fatherland," said Geshev in his address and promises "I will not betray you and I will not lie to you".
