Socialist proposes Bulgaria’s future EU commissioner to cope with Somali pirates issue Bulgaria’s future EU

Commissioner Rumyana Zheleva, who is to take up the portfolio for International Cooperation, Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Response, should be commissioned to the crisis region of Somalia to fight the hunger and the Somali pirates.

This is the proposal of socialist MP Kiril Dobrev with the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP), expressed at a news conference organized by the party.

Dobrev’s statement came in response to a statement by Prime Minister Boyko Borisov, who said that he and his government have paid for the released Bulgarian sailor kidnapped in Somalia.

Kiril Dobrev said further: “I wish to know whether PM’s statement made yesterday is true or was it just his latest blunder? If it is true, I may ask him certain other questions, too – when the abducted Bulgarian sailors will return home? Did Mr. Borisov offere his help to the EU, the USA and Russia for such hard situations, which emerge in other countries, too? Should all Bulgarian citizens count that Mr. Borisov is ready to pay for their release if every being kidnapped? What money did he use to pay for the sailor – from budget 2009 or budget 2010, or was it from his personal savings?”
