Bulgaria’s Minister of Interior Boyko Rashkov said in Parliament that he had received threats. He made this statement in response to a question whether he was aware of the threat to MP Hristo Petrov from “We Continue the Change”, better known as Itso Hazarta.
“No. I am not aware of this. Do you know that I have received threats as well. You can ask GERB party”, Minister Rashkov said. Earlier today, MP Hristo Petrov said from the Parliament’s rostrum that he received a message that If he continued to support Kiril Petkov’s and Assen Vassilev’s political formation, he would lose the most precious thing he has.
