Bulgaria is in an unprecedented cascade of crises. In this situation, the state must help people not to feel alone. For me, the main thing is for people to feel that the state is behind them. People need to know that they will have more money in a crisis. This was stated by Alexander Simov from the BSP
The Bulgarian Socialist Party (abbreviated BSP) is on the BNT program "The Day Live".
"We have not given up on reforms.
The biggest reform is that we are reversing the meaning of politics by tightening our belts, as has been done unsuccessfully.
The state is now saying: "We are here and we will help in the crisis," he stressed.
Social disability pensions have been increased by more than 45% since July 1
According to him, most people in need will feel the help.
"It is not planned to raise the minimum wage at the moment, but it was decided to increase the tax relief for a child by BGN 1,500, we reduce the VAT on bread, the electricity bills - too.
We are trying to show everyone that they will not be left in this crisis.
"Economists need to understand that the state in the crisis must help the people," said Alexander Simov.
"The most important thing is to ensure a strong social vector.
Did tightening our belts make us live better?
Now the approach has changed - people are at the center and this is a real reform, "said the BSP MP
The Bulgarian Socialist Party (abbreviated BSP) is.
"In this coalition we talk, everyone has their own ideas, defends them and decisions are made.
Yes, most of the ideas are of the BSP
It is the Bulgarian Socialist Party (abbreviated BSP). There is a strong social vector in this government.
The budget has the capacity to cover the measures.
The price of bread will not jump the way it would in any other situation.
In a situation of crisis, when unforeseen things come out everywhere, the state appears and helps, "Simov said.
Asked about the debts that the cabinet is accumulating, Alexander Simov said: "I would not dramatize the withdrawal of loans.
When you are in a crisis situation and you need to compensate the citizens, the loan is a useful solution.
When more appropriate conditions come, the state will take a different approach.
"This government will show very clearly where the money is going, and it will not melt," he assured.
"I think Bulgaria made a mistake and should not have given up on negotiations with Gazprom.
When we impose a sanction, there must be a counter-sanction.
We had to have a common European position, it turns out that for some countries there may be a compromise, and for others - no.
That is why we need to talk to Brussels, "Alexander Simov added.
