As of October 20, Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev will use his personal vehicle when travelling with administration staff who are forced to use their own vehicles while carrying out official duties related to state ceremonies, protocol, and events in the President’s work programme, according to a letter Radev has sent to the director of the National Service for Protection (NSP), quoted by the head of State’s Press Secretariat.
The reason behind Radev’s decision is the recently adopted amendments by the National Assembly regarding the activities of the NSP, which abolish the provision of transport services for the President’s administration.
“As a commander in the Bulgarian Armed Forces, I have never abandoned my subordinates in difficult situations – situations often created by the decisions of those in power. As President of the Republic of Bulgaria, I will not betray my principles and will stand in solidarity with the employees of the institution. I am convinced that when the political class passes laws that undermine the State, we, the Bulgarian citizens, must rebuild it. And that begins with personal integrity and restoring trust between citizens and politicians,” Radev wrote in his letter.
“I believe that you, as a general responsible for your subordinates, understand and share my reasoning,” the President added.
On October 3, MPs decided that the NSP will no longer provide transport services for the presidential administration. The amendment was supported by GERB–UDF, BSP–United Left, There Is Such a People, and Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) –New Beginning, as well as three independent MPs. The bill was introduced by Kalin Stoyanov from MRF–New Beginning.
