Public record

Compiled from publications and official records as of 18.10.2026. Every statement links to its source; claims made by others are marked as such, with who makes them. Quotations in English are our translation.

  • The contract with the rector's mother. As deputy rector of Sofia University he signed in 2018 a civil contract between the university and the mother of then rector Anastas Gerdzhikov; KPKONPI found no conflict of interest because the contract "was not signed by her son but by his deputy, Prof. Georgi Valchev" (our translation). — Mediapool, 01.10.2021
  • Incompatibility. As minister he remains registered as chair of the Association of State Universities because the Registry Agency refused to remove him, which "in practice puts him in a situation of incompatibility" (our translation). — Sega, 23.07.2026
  • The petition. Before his appointment academics launched a petition calling him a manager "with proven corrupt practices" (our translation); no specific case is given, and the Association of State Universities rejected it. — Actualno, 05.2026
  • Russia. In 2023 he said: "It is an illusion to think that Russia set out to liberate Bulgaria from purely altruistic intentions" (our translation). — Actualno, 03.03.2023
