PP–DB

The coalition of "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) and "Spasi Sofia" decided not to propose a candidate for the chairmanship of the Metropolitan Municipal Council in today's session. Boris Bonev, their initial nominee who was unsuccessful twice, confirmed the coalition's collective choice to abstain from the contest.

Kiril Petkov, co-chair of "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB), backed the "Denkov-Gabriel" cabinet, emphasizing Bulgaria's defense strategy focusing on modernizing the army with 21st-century technologies.

The Sofia Municipal Council failed to elect a chairman the first time. The nominees were Boris Bonev from "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria"/"Spasi Sofia", Diana Tonova from the Bulgarian Socialist Party, Krasimir Galabov from "Vazrazhdane", Plamen Danailov from "There Is Such a People".

In a momentous ceremony, Vasil Terziev officially took the oath as the mayor of Sofia for the next four years. The swearing-in ceremony marked the beginning of a new era for the city, with Terziev emphasizing his commitment to uphold the Constitution and laws of Bulgaria while working tirelessly for the well-being of Sofia's citizens.

In a dramatic turn of events during the National Conference of GERB in Veliko Tarnovo, Boyko Borissov, the leader of the party, has issued a strong ultimatum, signaling a potential rupture in the political coalition known as the 'assembly.'

Vanya Grigorova, the candidate who fell short in Sofia's local elections runoff, is making waves by contesting the results at the Administrative Court of Sofia.

As GERB, one of the two leading parties in Bulgaria, undertakes a comprehensive review of the recent election results, it is also gearing up to formulate its stance on its continued participation in the "assembly." The "assembly" refers to the shake coalition between GERB and "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB), the parties that garnered significant support following the parli

Boyko Borissov, the prominent leader of the Bulgarian political party GERB, has recently voiced his criticism of the "alleged" alliance between the "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) party and "Vazrazhdane" in the local elections.

With 100% processed protocols in the Regional Section Committee at 06:00 a.m. at the runoff in Bulgaria's sea capita, Varna, the mayoral seat was won by Blagomir Kotsev from We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria, for whom 45,395 people (53.06%) voted.

GERB candidate and current mayor Ivan Portnich came second with nearly 10,000 less votes, winning 41.52% of the vote.

It is highly likely that Varna will have a new mayor, and that person is likely to be Blagomir Kotsеv (pictured). Data from polling agencies currently give Kotsеv, supported by PP-DB, a slight lead over Ivan Portnih. However, the outcome remains uncertain as Blagomir Kotsеv is ahead by only around 4%. This marks a turnaround from the first round when Portnih from GERB had about a 5% lead.
