But is it worth it and how significant is the public interest? The abuses of 5, 10, 100 thousand euros revealed so far hardly justify the salaries of the Bulgarian delegated prosecutors, not to mention the Luxembourg ones. They investigate abuses for ridiculous amounts, and brag about them. Tremble, chickens!      <\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But when it comes to big corruption and the hundreds of millions dragged along with political protection, Kovesi&#8217;s omerta is ironclad. What happened to <strong>GP Gate<\/strong>? Where did the hundreds of millions for <strong>houses for mothers-in-law<\/strong> sink? <strong>Mario&#8217;s Ducks<\/strong> for a Few Million Where Did They Fly? Have <strong>26 million euros<\/strong> been found <strong>for food for the poor in Romania<\/strong>, stolen with the help of Bulgarian banksters from FIB? Our investigation found luxury properties bought with this money. Are they seized? They are not!      <\/p>&#13;\n&#13;\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And more topical: It was never understood what happened to the <strong>two arrested<\/strong> for the multimillion-dollar <a href=\"https:\/\/bird.bg\/en\/?p=36709\">railway project<\/a> Kostenets-Septemvri, from which the <a href=\"https:\/\/bird.bg\/en\/the-government-is-in-a-hurry-to-pay-100-million-to-a-company-linked-to-peevski-before-the-european-commission-approves-them\/\">corpulent shadow<\/a> of <strong>Delyan Peevski<\/strong> peeks out. And who are they? Which court took a measure of restraint for them? And has it been taken at all? Why this deep discretion? The investigation sank somewhere and neither Peevski nor his right-hand infrastructural arm Ivan <strong>Mirinski<\/strong> were worried. In this investigation, it was allegedly established that millions were exported in cash, like in <strong>Hemusgate<\/strong>. There is no high-speed railway, there will not be any soon, but has someone collected money with sacks? Who, dear Codru\u021ba? Who took them away? This is what we want to know quickly. Otherwise, the chickens will understand that in Europe there is a political omerta not to work on corruption crimes related to the top of the Bulgarian mafia!           <\/p>&#13;\n<p><blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"jR9IfvxUA0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bird.bg\/en\/the-government-is-in-a-hurry-to-pay-100-million-to-a-company-linked-to-peevski-before-the-european-commission-approves-them\/\">\u041f\u0440\u0430\u0432\u0438\u0442\u0435\u043b\u0441\u0442\u0432\u043e\u0442\u043e \u0431\u044a\u0440\u0437\u0430 \u0434\u0430 \u043f\u043b\u0430\u0442\u0438 100 \u043c\u0438\u043b\u0438\u043e\u043d\u0430 \u043d\u0430 \u0444\u0438\u0440\u043c\u0430 \u0441\u0432\u044a\u0440\u0437\u0430\u043d\u0430 \u0441 \u041f\u0435\u0435\u0432\u0441\u043a\u0438 \u043f\u0440\u0435\u0434\u0438 \u0415\u0432\u0440\u043e\u043a\u043e\u043c\u0438\u0441\u0438\u044f\u0442\u0430 \u0434\u0430 \u0433\u0438 \u043e\u0434\u043e\u0431\u0440\u0438<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;\u041f\u0440\u0430\u0432\u0438\u0442\u0435\u043b\u0441\u0442\u0432\u043e\u0442\u043e \u0431\u044a\u0440\u0437\u0430 \u0434\u0430 \u043f\u043b\u0430\u0442\u0438 100 \u043c\u0438\u043b\u0438\u043e\u043d\u0430 \u043d\u0430 \u0444\u0438\u0440\u043c\u0430 \u0441\u0432\u044a\u0440\u0437\u0430\u043d\u0430 \u0441 \u041f\u0435\u0435\u0432\u0441\u043a\u0438 \u043f\u0440\u0435\u0434\u0438 \u0415\u0432\u0440\u043e\u043a\u043e\u043c\u0438\u0441\u0438\u044f\u0442\u0430 \u0434\u0430 \u0433\u0438 \u043e\u0434\u043e\u0431\u0440\u0438&#8221; &#8212; BIRD\" src=\"https:\/\/bird.bg\/en\/the-government-is-in-a-hurry-to-pay-100-million-to-a-company-linked-to-peevski-before-the-european-commission-approves-them\/embed\/#?secret=qU1ua4GGuk#?secret=jR9IfvxUA0\" data-secret=\"jR9IfvxUA0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>&#13;\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Bulgarians, who do not consider corruption to be a scam in which they do not participate, pinned great hopes &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"Kovesi&#8217;s Chicken Farming\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/bird.bg\/en\/eppo-kyoveshi-chicken\/#more-49173\" aria-label=\"More on Kovesi&#8217;s Chicken Farming\">\u0412\u0438\u0436 \u043e\u0449\u0435 \/ Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":45632,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_crdt_document":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[69],"tags":[1988,644,241,246,7359,7372,6524,7231,7350,10505,6525],"coauthors":[204],"class_list":{"0":"post-49173","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"hentry","7":"category-comments-en","8":"tag-debts-to-the-nra","9":"tag-delyan-peevski","10":"tag--en","12":"tag-eppo-en","13":"tag-european-public-prosecutors-office","14":"tag-guest-houses","15":"tag-judicial-system","16":"tag-kovesi","17":"tag-laura-kovesi-en","18":"tag-mother-in-law-houses"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v19.6 (Yoast SEO v27.2) -
