Kiril Petkov: We saw an attack on the parliamentary republic

"After what I saw at the handing over of the mandate yesterday, I decided to return to Bulgaria a day earlier from the meeting of many of the European leaders at the GLOBSEC forum in Bratislava. We clearly saw an attack on the parliamentary republic. No one can afford to make calls that Bulgaria should have no regular government, no one can put the budget and people's money on the background for their personal power ambitions. 
We will not allow Bulgaria to take a fast course towards Eurasia and lose its freedom and democracy. We need a regular and pro-European government an hour sooner". This was written on the personal Facebook profile of the co-chairman of We Continue the Change, Kiril Petkov, who is on the list of official participants in the forum.
