Music producer Stanislava Armutlieva turned down the nomination for minister of culture in the prospective cabinet of ITN (There Is such a People).
On Facebook she wrote that she had made her decision even before ITN’s leader Slavi Trifonov announced he was withdrawing the nomination for a prospective government.
“I am grateful to Slavi and his team for the trust and the honour they accorded me. I shall always be ready to help them and all those who take up the challenge of being drivers of change,” Armutlieva writes.
Her post on Facebook makes it clear that initially other names had been nominated for ministers of finance and of economy, not the ones announced by Slavi Trifonov on 12 July.
