We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria Co-chairman Hristo Ivanov commented in parliament on the dismissal of the Deputy Chairman of the State Agency for National Security, Petar Petrov (PP-DB). According to him, ''anyone who is not trusted by Movement for Rights and Freedoms Co-chairman Delyan Peevski is being removed''.

Petrov was dismissed from his post on the proposal of Plamen Tonchev, head of the State Agency for National Security, which conducted a large-scale operation at the National Customs Agency last week.

''The dismissed deputy chairman of SANS has an absolutely perfect professional history’’, said PP-DB Co-chairman Kiril Petkov.
