I have never been a member of There is such a people

"There is such a people" is a political party in Bulgaria, created by the Bulgarian TV channel, but they stood firmly behind me and my decisions.

I will stand firmly behind them.

There is no reason not to vote each other's confidence.

This was stated by the former regional minister Grozdan Karadjov

Grozdan Karadjov was born on December 14, 1966 in the city of Stara Zagora. He graduated from the English language course on the air of Nova News.

"The roads are in a terrible state - the one we found them in was even worse.

If you remember, already in the first month of my position as minister of regional development, I made a 4-year program to repair all roads.

This program has been executed.

I can say that the current Minister and the Road Infrastructure Agency continue to implement it.

These maps - everyone can check for which year the road they are most interested in and what repair will be carried out - whether current or major repair.

The ambition was after a successful 4-year term to go out with our heads held high," he added and showed the cards in the studio.

On the occasion of the decision of the Constitutional Council, by which he annulled the decision of the National Assembly on the dispatch of contracts for ongoing repair and maintenance, he stated: "Today I am extremely satisfied to say that then, when I said that it was unconstitutional - you remember how many lies and accusations hurled at me.

The transcripts in the National Assembly are alive, I have repeatedly warned that the payment of old obligations is not in the budget of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, that BGN 1.2 billion has already been recognized by the previous cabinet.

Why are we now saying that this money is owed?

Because the Management Board of the API, before it the relevant technical services in the API, have recognized these payments.

Inspections were carried out in the settlements where these repairs were made - they were recognized by the Board of Directors.

Every line, every guardrail,

every asphalt - I found all this on my desk recognized by the Administrative Board of API and confirmed and I went with this folder to Petkov and Vasilev.

Money was not foreseen, on the contrary – mechanisms were foreseen to hinder the work of the Ministry of National Development and Regional Development.

They are unconstitutional and lead to the appearance that we, as a partner in governance, are not doing our job," he is emphatic.

"On current repairs and maintenance, these are payments that are due for 2019, 2020 and 2021.

These were old payments.

And in September 2021, Vassilev submitted a report requesting that this money be paid.

And suddenly, “We continue the change

Kiril Petkov and Asen Vassilev presented their political project "Continuing the change"" decide that they want new inspections, almost for the parliament to become an accountant.

This now looks to me like extortion and holding the road construction companies in check.

This is not the Hemus case, here the work is done and the money is due.

From August 1, interest is due on the remaining BGN 550 million, which is due - it is BGN 5 million per month, because they are punitive," he also informed.

"Those who created obstacles for me - this Harvard circle, could not manage the country.

To create unconstitutional decisions and to force me to submit them and defend these decisions, provided that I said that the National Assembly has no business checking the accounts and accounting of API - this is an executive power," Karadjov believes.

Grozdan Karadjov: The proposed solutions for the roads are time bombs

He defined Nastimir Ananiev's words about the "Hemus" case and the export of sacks of money as "incompetence".

"Not only is it logical to build a tunnel under Petrokhan, but there is also a wrong concept that I found in the Ministry.

I left this card with Minister Shishkov and I can see that he listened carefully.

This is the only European corridor that passes through Bulgaria, the others have long ceased to exist.

There will be a highway through Struma - this is not a lost cause," he is categorical.

According to him, in order to introduce concessions to pay for the highways, the question "How much per kilometer of the new highways will the citizens pay" must be answered: "And here, I promise, it will go bankrupt.

Because when the account of the future concessionaire is made, he will ask for indexation and funds.

It will turn out that we will pay BGN per kilometer, and now we pay 10 times less.

The state has a way of finding funding."
