Political scientist Kaloyan Metodiev says Rosen Zhelyazkov's government had zero options left after 250,000 protesters showed up across three demonstrations, representing maybe a million people when you count their families and online supporters. The cabinet made a bunch of dumb moves and essentially killed itself, but Metodiev warns this resignation is just a tactical retreat rather than an actual defeat. He told everyone to keep up the pressure because the real fight starts during election season and budget negotiations.
Sociologist Svetlin Tachev compared the situation to the 2018-2019 protests and said the scandals destroyed any remaining trust, while journalist Veselin Stoynev called Boyko Borisov's strategy an illegitimate dodge that dumps responsibility on the opposition. The experts agree the government is regrouping instead of actually falling apart, and the dismantling of the old political model is just getting started.
