Prime Minister
Boyko Borisov rushed furiously into the hall where today s traditional briefing of the National Operative Headquarters was held and interrupted it. He turned up the heat bragging about his successful management of Bulgaria. The Prime Minister s main target was President Rumen Radev. Borissov voiced serious accusations against the head of state.
Radev says that I am a mate of Peevski and that I am a protégé of Erdogan. Both allegations are not true. Yes, Erdogan respects me, and that s fine, because he s the head of 85-million Turkey - our biggest muslim neighbor. Yes, we are friends, but I am also friends with the Serbian president and Romanian and others. It is not true that I am a mate of Peevski in business and politics. I haven t even seen him in a few years. He s the MP of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms, and I ve won many

elections in the spring of this year.

consultations, first with health authorities and then with health experts, as yesterday he also spoke with mayors of small municipalities.

There is a persistent trend towards more cured
coronavirus patients relative to newly infected cases. This information was reported at a regular briefing of the National Operational Headquarters.

These are the important things, we will not hesitate to stand up for these important principles , promised Minister of Health Prof. Kostadin Angelov.
If the positive trend towards less new cases of disease is maintained for at least a week, a loosening of restrictive measures may be considered, but it should be taken into account that these data are currently from holiday days, warned Angel Kunchev. He pointed out that our country remains third in mortality in the European Union and first in the Balkans.
