Maria Bakalova came out with an official position on the occasion of an interview in "The Guardian", the Bulgarian team of the actress reports. The headline in the British media of an interview with Bakalova, who played the role of Ivana Trump in the film "The Apprentince", was a figment of journalist Emine Saner's imagination and did not correspond to the truth, the position said. Bakalova's team has provided a recording of the interview, from which it is clear that words spoken by the actress about the film character of Roy Marcus Cohn, were incorrectly quoted as being said about the film character of Donald Trump. After the protest, "The Guardian" changed the title of their article, BTA reports.

Maria Bakalova's real words about the character of Trump in the film are: "This is not a political film. People are complex creatures." Bakalova describes Roy Cohn as “one of the most vicious people of our century”.
