Fifty-Six MPs, Not Fifty-Six Saviors

In his article titled “Fifty-Six MPs, Not Fifty-Six Saviors,” the Patriarch analyzes the approach of candidates for parliament ahead of the May 24th elections. He points out that citizens are voting for legislators and not for “saviors” or “national leaders” who promise easy solutions to complex problems. The author accuses many candidates of imitating old populism, promising everything to everyone without offering realistic solutions. He criticizes the oversimplification of problems and the lack of seriousness in the candidates' approach. He emphasizes that parliament requires knowledge, persistence, and respect for institutions, while candidates must have self-awareness and understand the limits of their responsibilities. He points out that society needs serious legislators and not people who seek personal glory. The Patriarch calls on citizens to vote for people who understand their responsibilities and are able to contribute to the smooth functioning of the state, avoiding candidates who promise miracles and easy solutions.
