"The prime minister's announcement of the intention to change the rules of the competition and the official in charge of it raises a serious question about a possible desire to appoint to this office a weak person who could be politically influenced and would be close to the prime minister and his party," Volberts said.
"Tāpēc premjera paziņojums par vēlmi mainīt konkursa kārtību un atbildīgo amatpersonu rada nopietnu jautājumu, vai amatā nav vēlme ielikt vāju, politiski ietekmējamu un premjeram un viņa partijai pietuvinātu cilvēku," bažījas Volberts.
