“We Continue the Change – Democratic Bulgaria” called on Minister of Regional Development Ivan Ivanov to immediately dismiss the chair of the Management Board of the Road Infrastructure Agency, Eng. Yordan Valchev. “The reasons for the request are the dissemination of false and misleading information regarding the condition of the I-3 road in the section between the villages of Telish and Radomirtsi, where a Bulgarian child lost her life on March 31,” MP Andrey Tsekov said.
The MP recalled that back in 2022, the RIA had noted the poor condition of the road and the need for major repairs, while in a report the State Agency for Road Safety informed about the high risk of road accidents. According to him, major repairs never took place, only patches were made. In addition, there were false claims made after the incident.
When asked whether the chairman of RIA should resign, GERB leader Boyko Borisov replied that this is responsibility of Minister Ivan Ivanov and he must decide what to do.
