"Madam President, Bulgaria is yet another country to join the worldwide struggle against poverty and corruption. One of the participants in the protests commented accurately: ‘We are all linked together: Bulgaria, Turkey and Brazil. We are fighting for different reasons, but we all want our governments to finally work for us. We are inspiring each other.’
The protests are an expression of huge popular anger against all the establishment parties. It is quite hypocritical now for these parties to blame one another for the political stalemate in order to gain politically from the people’s misery and poverty, which they are responsible for creating. Bulgaria is the poorest country in the European Union, with an average income of less than EUR 400 per month and state pensions below EUR 100 per month. The EU, with its pro-privatisation, pro-liberalisation agenda, is complicit in this impoverishment. The key to resolving the economic and social situation, as well as to achieving real democracy, lies with the working-class poor and young people in Bulgaria. It is vital to build democratic and fighting trade unions, as well as genuinely socialist parties to organise the movement and struggle for radical socialist change."@en1
