A Member of Parliament aligned with Bulgarian President Rumen Radev has characterized the detention of an activist in the town of Strumyani as a "classic active measure." Stefan Belchev, an MP from Radev's party, asserted in a Facebook post that the incident was a staged event orchestrated by the opposition.

Belchev claimed that the opposition created a "cheap circus" specifically to disrupt President Radev's visit to Strumyani. He suggested that the activist's arrest was not a genuine event but rather a politically motivated ploy designed to create negative publicity for the president.
