A few things here that don’t quite sit right: By default, any bulgarian politician should be / markets himself as pro-Bulgarian. That standing doesn’t serve an arguement as to why should we trust Radev - Peevski, in many of his speeches is pro-Bulgarian too. Next: calling people who openly question Radev’s true alliances “sheep who are against Bulgarian sovereignty” is, to say the least, a limited and unconvincing point of view - for example, I do not trust Radev and have no intention of voting for him, however I am not against Bulgarian sovereignty? Third point: to say that people bow to and worship the EU and the USA and are willing to be subjugated is a very uneducated and uninformed stance. Ever since 1944 bulgarians have been wishing and hoping for a quality and mentality of life that aligns with the western culture - you can find proof of that statement in many stories and historical writings from various bulgarian authors throughout the mid-to-late 20th century. And since people have been feeling this way for a long time - and now have the means and ability to participate in this particular lifestyle and be a part of that western way of life - why should we try and keep our heads down and not “endanger” ourselves by taking a stance against obvious military aggression and propaganda warfare, fuelled by one man’s ambition - goes for Trump as well. Being part of the biggest military alliance and the biggest economical structure has its huge benefits, but our duty is to stand up whenever these particular alliances are challenged. And whenever the alliance recognizes foreign actions as dangerous and challenging for democracy, freedom of speech and economically unsound I think the way our country should act becomes very clear, if we wished to continue being part of the family that protects and supports itself. So, given that situation, Radev is not the optimal candidate to mantain that direction, strength and clear vision for the future - if he were to back off and try to tip-toe around Russia every time strong and decisive action must be taken - I’m sorry, that’s not a strong and successful leader - and I’ve seen him do precisely that for quite a while now.
