Georg Georgiev: The state should focus on inflation, not on managing theaters

Published 2026-10-22

The political debate in Bulgaria has intensified following a statement by Georg Georgiev on the show "Studio Banker." At the center of the discussion is the role of the state in managing cultural institutions against the backdrop of serious economic challenges facing the country.

Georgiev questioned the priorities of the ruling authorities, emphasizing that the state apparatus should not be involved in the administrative management of theaters while citizens are facing a dizzying rise in the prices of basic goods and services. According to him, tackling inflation should be the primary focus of the institutions.

During the conversation, the topic of transparency in state structures was also touched upon. Georgiev raised the question of who is afraid of conducting in-depth investigations, especially in cases where they lead to the resignations of senior officials in various departments.

These comments come at a time when the public is closely monitoring the work of state bodies and their effectiveness in managing public funds. The question of the balance between cultural policy and economic stability remains key for Bulgarian citizens.

It is expected that the topic will continue to be a subject of debate in the National Assembly, as issues regarding prices and the control of state institutions directly affect the daily lives of people in the country.
