Borissov Accuses Sofia Council of Corruption in Budget Dispute

Sofia Budget Dispute: Borissov Accuses Opposition of Corruption Former Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov held a press conference yesterday, leveling serious accusations of corruption against members of the Sofia city council. Borissov claims that the approximately 3 billion BGN budget is being manipulated by a group that includes Taki, Orlin Alexiev, and Krassimir Chernishki. He alleges that Alexiev, in particular, represents the interests of Delyan Peevski, a controversial media mogul. "We are not participating in the robbery of Sofia," Borissov stated, emphasizing his party's opposition to the current budget allocation. He further suggested that this influence extends to the boards of various companies and their executives, impacting city services and contracts. The accusations are serious and require thorough investigation. While Borissov's claims remain unverified, the video highlights significant tensions surrounding Sofia's budget and raises concerns about potential corruption within city governance. Further investigation is needed to determine the accuracy of Borissov's allegations and the extent of any potential wrongdoing.
