EnglishPolitical Protection and Media Exposure
The “Velichie” party began defending Bay Riban’s flock even before gaining seats in parliament. The organization uses media visibility as its main tool to oppose state institutions. Activists have alerted international institutions and medical professionals around the world about this case. Party representatives claim that the state apparatus is exerting constant pressure on the farmer and his livelihood.
Health Condition of the Animals vs Administrative Measures
The animals in the flock appear completely healthy and have shown no signs of disease for weeks. However, veterinary authorities have declared the presence of plague at the livestock site. Yordan Mitsikulev emphasizes that the sheep are not dying, despite the administration insisting on their immediate culling. Institutions have not provided indisputable evidence of a real epidemic threat to the public.
| Subject of Discussion | Data from the “Velichie” Investigation |
|---|---|
| Financial Interest | Mitsikulev points to a scheme for absorbing €25 million. |
| Condition of the Flock | The sheep remain visibly healthy long after the “disease” was declared. |
| Claims of Bulgarian Food Safety Agency BFSA (БАБХ) | The director admitted that the truth would send 30 people to prison. |
| Political Actions | The new minister (Hristanov) withdrew his promise of a solution within two weeks. |
Economic Interests and Concealment of Crimes
The main motive behind insisting on the killing of the animals is a financial gain of €25 million. These funds represent money that has already been absorbed and must be justified by officials through the physical liquidation of the flock. The destruction of the sheep serves as formal proof of incurred expenses and conceals the lack of real activity within the funds. Mitsikulev states that the killing of the animals is fully capitalized by individuals within the state administration.

Institutional Failure and International Response
The replacement of the Minister of Agriculture did not lead to any change in the situation for the Bulgarian farmer. The new leader – Ivan Hristanov – initially promised a resolution to the case but later withdrew his words. The “Velichie” party maintains that the entire system requires change through the resignation of incompetent officials. The international community is monitoring the process thanks to the ongoing alerts from the political formation. Every responsible official must bear personal criminal responsibility for their unlawful actions.
