Can you imagine that?! This person, who legalized the construction in our forests and the indiscriminate felling, is now to protect and manage the few remaining forests after their destruction! Didn\u2019t we learn enough bloody lessons so far? Doesn\u2019t it become clear what people emerge and to what unseen new misfortunes they will drag Bulgaria?! Two and a half years ago, environmental activist Toma Belev wrote a prophetic opinion on the GERB Forestry Act crafted precisely by Taneva, <strong>\u201cThe Carrion\u201d and \u201cThe Cigarette Butt<\/strong>\u201d &#8211; that it will destroy the few remaining forests. However, \u201cThe Carrion\u201d and \u201cThe Cigarette Butt\u201d were disgracefully discarded, but Taneva remained and in sign of gratitude, now the Prime Minister-Thug has decided to make her Minister. Read this and make your own conclusions about where they come from and where they will lead us. Desislava Taneva &#8211; remember that name \u2013 she is also a darling of the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) and of the notorious party claiming to represent the Muslim minority in Bulgaria \u2013 Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS)!!!
