Two MPs from "Democratic Bulgaria" coalition ask Bulgaria’s outgoing Premier Boyko Borissov whether there is any external interference in the blasts that occurred in military factories on Bulgarian territory in the past 10 years.

 MPs Velizar Shalamanov and Martin Dimitrov are questioning Boyko Borissov following the revelations of the Czech authorities that Russian military intelligence agents were behind the blast at a Czech arms depot in 2014. The Czech investigation said the attacks were against an ammunition belonging to Bulgarian arms dealer Emilian Gebrev. Gebrev's company denied the information, reported BGNES. 

A statement was read in the plenary hall on behalf of Democratic Bulgaria coalition. Democratic Bulgaria expressed its concern about the scope and level of the Russian spy network in this country’s Ministry of Defense. Last month, the Bulgarian Prosecutor’s Office announced that it had broken up a Russian spy ring which includes officials from Bulgaria’s Defense Ministry. The Parliamentary group of Democratic Bulgaria insists that Bulgaria’s outgoing Premier presents to the National Assembly his assessment of the network's influence in the executive organs of the government, the security sector and the Parliament’s administration.
