Dr. Lyubomir Kanov: Radev's first political statement was dry, expressionless and talentless  - 1

In Radev, I saw a citizen and pensioner who was trying to make his first political statement, addressed to a wide audience, well-prepared by PR. He strove to move within the strict directness of what he intended to say. The result - a dry, expressionless and talentless speech with uniform answers without particular content.

This is how psychiatrist Dr. Lyubomir Kanov commented on the participation of President (2017-2026) Rumen Radev on BNT in the studio of "Offensive with Lyubo Ognyanov". It was the first for the current head of state since he resigned.

In it, Radev said that there are various options for a party with which to run in the elections, but he does not have time to make his own now, and that he will do this after the early vote - since that is why he entered politics.

According to the psychiatrist, "with a specific rigidity, Rumen Radev followed the line he had decided to follow" during his participation. "There was tension, which was countered by didacticism and control over his words. Rumen Radev addressed his speech to people who use the lower parts of the brain and emotions, rather than a more analytical approach. He used highly charged words such as corruption and oligarchy, in the context of a mythical creature. He had to use names. His PR people advised him to be more ruthless, and he was - almost to the point of complete heartlessness," the medic analyzes.

In his words, Radev would "make overtures in all directions," but his true beliefs have long been oriented towards Moscow. "The rest will be only mimicry and various feints," believes Dr. Lyubomir Kanov.

According to the psychiatrist, the clashes over murders by immigration services in the US are aimed at Trump's loss in the midterm elections. "The state of Minnesota belongs to the Democrats. The initial immigrants are Scandinavians, social and left-wing people. They were strongly favored by Somalis, about 200,000. They created a lot of problems, including huge deficits in the state budget, as they robbed it with various schemes. "Minnesota could be the nucleus of an uprising against Trump, it's almost a civil war - state against the federal authorities. There is an attempt to make ICE people out to be Nazis and fascists, a bat with which to beat all attempts to stop illegal migration. The goal is to win the midterm elections in November," commented Dr. Kanov.
