Turkish Minister agitates for DOST, reformists and patriots protest against that, Dnevnik daily writes on its first pages. The newspaper accentuates on the responses of Bulgarian political parties against the flagrant statement of Turkey’s Social Minister and quotes the official stand of the Reformist Bloc that reads: “We are highly concerned with the fact that a member of the Turkish cabinet has persuaded the Bulgarian immigrants in Turley to vote for a given political party. We believe that this was an unacceptable interference in Bulgaria’s internal affairs”. VMRO leader Krasimir Karakachanov also described the act of Turkey’s Social Minister as “unacceptable interference of Turkey in Bulgaria’s home affairs.” Krasimir Karakachanov also protested against the appearance of Turkey’s Ambassador to Sofia at pre-election video of DOST Alliance. “This was both a violation of the Vienna convention on diplomatic relations and an impudent provocation”, Dnevnik daily quotes Krasimir Karakachanov.
