Movement for Rights and Freedoms

In a contentious session at the Bulgarian Parliament, MPs voted 66-61 in favor of supporting Nikolai Denkov's government. However, moments before the no-confidence motion was put to vote, Members of Parliament from GERB-SDS and the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) vacated the chamber.

In a bold prediction, Kostadin Kostadinov, the leader of Bulgaria's pro-Russian party "Vazrazhdane," foresees early parliamentary elections in the spring of 2024. Speaking in Varna, Kostadinov asserted that the current government, formed by the 'assembly,' lacks sustainable support and is likely to dissolve. He attributed its fragility to overseas influences.

In a brief meeting, the members of the parliamentary group of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) decided that Delyan Peevski will now serve as the sole chairman of the DPS Parliamentary Group, a position he previously shared with the resigned chairman, Mustafa Karadayi.

Mustafa Karadayi has resigned as chairman of the DPS (Dvijenie za Prava i Svobodi/Movement for Rights and Freedoms), "24 Chasa" reports, citing unofficial sources from the Movement.

DPS did not comment on the information to BNT, but reported that a party meeting is currently being held.

By 11 am, 100% of the tally sheets in 14 regional capitals were processed - Blagoevgrad, Burgas, Veliko Tarnovo, Vidin, Gaborov, Dobrich, Kardzhali, Lovech, Montana, Pazardhik, Pernik, Razgrad, Ruse, Silistra, Sliven, Smoylan, Haskovo and Yambol.

Blagoevgrad

Ilko Stoyanov (nominating committee): 27.07%

It is now official - "We Continuing the Change-Democratic Bulgaria", GERB and DPS submitted the project for amendments to the Constitution to the secretariat of the National Assembly.

Bulgarian political party GERB-SDS stated that the proposal submitted to the parliament for new military aid to Ukraine foresees the provision of over 100 pieces of armored equipment, which is no longer needed for the Bulgarian gendarmerie, but is still functional.

Bulgarian political party "We Continue the Change" intends to become a full member of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe (ALDE). This became clear from the words of Prime Minister Nikolay Denkov, who, together with Finance Minister and co-chairman of WCC Asen Vassilev, participated in the forum of European liberals before the summit in Brussels.

The leaders of GERB-SDS, WCC-DB and DPS gathered at a meeting in the National Assembly because of the judicial reform and the changes in the Constitution.

Nearly a third of Bulgarians approve of Nikolay Denkov's cabinet. Erosion in WCC-DB support of 5%. A decline in the positive assessment of the president's work. These are the main conclusions of a study by "Trend" commissioned by "24 Chasa" newspaper, dedicated to the attitudes of Bulgarians towards the main institutions and parties.
