Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73635, member: 636"] BSP leader Atanas Zafirov just dropped an ultimatum on his coalition buddies from GERB, and There Is Such A People. He said his party's gonna bounce from the government if they gut all the social stuff from the revised 2026 budget. That means no wage hikes, no pension bumps, and no maternity benefit increases that the three parties locked in together. Zafirov called it reckless to roll into 2026 using last year's budget and said BSP will fight hard in the new budget talks to keep their social policies intact. He wants employers to back workers instead of freezing wages, especially with the eurozone entry coming up. His whole vibe was that Bulgaria needs real leadership to get through whatever's ahead, and ditching their promises to regular people would cross a line his party won't accept. [/QUOTE]
