Former Energy Minister Miroslav Sevlievski told bTV that the protests represent the massive chunk of Bulgarians who skip voting, and he thinks people turned out because politicians have been acting like arrogant jerks. Journalist Konstantin Valkov pointed out that young protesters actually have clear demands this time around, unlike back in 2021 when they just voted against stuff. These younger folks apparently want transparency instead of backroom deals, plus they want economic stability because they actually plan on sticking around in Bulgaria.
Sevlievski said the generation hates provincial mediocrity and despotic vibes, and he thinks this crew is launching a legit revolution that will spawn completely new political projects. Valkov questioned why everyone acts like the budget is make-or-break when revenues keep flowing regardless, and he doubts President Rumen Radev gets what young people want since they reject both GERB and Russian influence.
