“I was left with the feeling that the future caretaker premier is being subjected to enormous, I would even say brutal political pressure not to have me as member of a future caretaker cabinet,” said current caretaker Interior Minister Kalin Stoyanov after a meeting with the caretaker PM nominee Goritsa Grancharova-Kozhareva. He described their conversation as “to the point” and “professional” and added that he had presented the analysis and the results of the Interior Ministry’s work over the past year he had been asked for.
Kalin Stoyanov said he acquainted Goritsa Grancharova-Kozhareva with the priorities of the ministry, the problems and their possible solution as well as with the road the Interior Ministry should follow so that the process of Bulgaria’s accession to the Schengen area may be completed. Minister Stoyanov stated further that his own feeling is that there are other people who have been invited for a meeting as candidates for the post he occupies.
