Bnn, Bulgarian news network - Ethnic Turks Push for Reshuffle of Bulgaria's Government

"Ethnic Turks Push for Reshuffle of Bulgaria�s Government


SOFIA (bnn)- An ethnic Turkish party allied to Bulgaria�s minority government urged a Cabinet reshuffle Wednesday as opposition threatened to call a no-confidence vote in the wake of an abortive privatization deal.

�Partial changes in the government are necessary so that it regains lost public trust,� Yunal Lyutfi, a lawmaker for the ethnic Turkish Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) told the private bTV channel.

Prime Minister Simeon Saxe-Coburg Gotha would not immediately respond to the call. The five opposition parties in parliament vowed to oust him alleging he tried to conceal the terms of a draft sale of three cigarette plants that ended in disarray on Tuesday."
