GERB leader Boyko Borisov said in Parliament that Bulgaria will become a member of the eurozone on January 1, regardless of protests organized by representatives of We Continue the Change Democratic Bulgaria (PP-DB). He was commenting on opposition calls for demonstrations against next year’s budget. Boyko Borisov stressed that protests are part of democracy but will not halt the process of joining the eurozone.
“In 2020, when I brought the country into the eurozone waiting room and the European Banking Union, we saw exactly the same kind of protests, supported by ‘Vazrazhdane’, ‘We Continue the Change’, the President, and others. Now we are seeing the same thing as we enter the eurozone. No matter what they do, I will hold firm, and from January 1 we will be in the eurozone”, said the leader of the main party in the ruling majority.
