Moscow [Russia], June 16 (ANI/Sputnik): The dismissed head of the State Intelligence Agency of Bulgaria, Atanas Atanasov, said on Wednesday that the Kremlin had a role in his removal from the post.
The cabinet justified the decision to replace Atanasov by the lack of objectivity, impartiality, and political neutrality in the agency under his leadership.
Atanasov at a press conference rejected such allegations. The main reason for my removal is the long arm of the Kremlin and the actions agreed with a well-known businessman. Successful work against Russian influence, I mean the Russian intelligence agencies, is the reason behind my dismissal, he said, as cited by the BGNES news agency.
