Borissov Remains Silent on Peevski Chats Amid Magnitsky Act Scrutiny

Bulgaria's Borissov Deflects Questions on Peevski Chats Amid Magnitsky Act Scrutiny Sofia, Bulgaria – Former Prime Minister Boyko Borissov has once again evaded direct questions concerning his communications with Delyan Peevski, a controversial businessman linked to the Magnitsky Act. In a short video circulating online, Borissov is seen responding to a reporter's inquiry about his chats with Peevski, stating, "I don't comment on my personal conversations." This statement, however, fails to address the serious allegations surrounding their interactions. The Magnitsky Act, a US law targeting human rights violators, has cast a shadow over the Bulgarian political landscape, and Borissov's reluctance to engage with these allegations fuels speculation and public concern. The video itself, though brief, highlights the ongoing tension and unresolved questions surrounding this critical issue within Bulgarian politics. The lack of transparency underscores the need for further investigation and accountability.
