Political commentator Svetoslav Terziev has forecast in the "(O) position" talk show that the next ones to be removed from the political and public life in Bulgaria are Boyko Borissov and Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev.

The Anti-Corruption Commission for Illegal Assets Forfeiture (ACCIAF) has filed a claim in court for the confiscation of BGN 158,000 from MEP Elena Yoncheva.

The claim was lodged on March 17 to the Sofia City Court, and Yoncheva became the subject of a probe by the Commission then headed by Sotir Tsatsarov after she was charged with money laundering in early 2019.

The path to the euro means discipline, security and transparency, said Prime Minister Boyko Borissov at the 13th meeting between the business and the government, Focus News Agencyreports. He stressed the banking union would put major banks under control. "Huge efforts are made, it is not easy because we have to convince our partners that things are all right," he said.

Bulgaria's Prosecutor General, Sotir Tsatsarov, on Thursday said that he had asked the country's parliament to drop the immunity of five opposition MPs and one ruling party deputy to probe them over corruption allegations. 

Sofia. By the end of the year, we will have an electronic register for people with disabilities, Prime Minister Boyko Borissov told reporters. "Mr. Tomislav Donchev is ready with the information system. We will need up to BGN 1 million for it," Borissov said, quoted by Focus News Agency.

Should Bulgaria be allowed to join the eurozone and the EU's banking union? That is the question that has been under consideration by European policymakers this summer. In theory, of course, Bulgaria not only has a right to join both but is legally obliged to do so, under the conditions of its accession to the bloc.
