The “Democratic Bulgaria” party has submitted a proposal to the Bulgarian Parliament requesting classified information regarding the state security detail previously provided to Delian Peevski, a controversial media owner and politician. The motion seeks to compel the head of the National Security Service (NSS) to release relevant documentation. Simultaneously, the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) party has proposed a broader request, seeking information on all individuals receiving state protection since 2013. This counter-proposal expands the scope of inquiry beyond Peevski to encompass a wider range of protected individuals. The requests signal growing political tensions and a push for greater transparency concerning the allocation of state security resources. Both parties are seeking clarity on the criteria and justification for providing state protection. The parliamentary vote on these proposals will determine whether the requested information will be disclosed.
