Co-leader Bozhidar Bozhanov of the Yes, Bulgaria party indicated that dialogue remains possible with Continue the Change (CC) and Democrats for Strong Bulgaria (DSB) regarding a coalition agreement in Bulgaria. Speaking on bTV on Monday, Bozhanov stated that there is room for continued discussion with CC, emphasizing that the voters’ interests are central to any negotiations. He highlighted judicial reform as a key policy area where the parties show complete alignment.
Informally, the three political groups have been collaborating since February 2023, and the current focus is on formalizing this partnership through a signed coalition agreement. A potential long-term idea being discussed is the eventual merger of the participating parties into a single entity. Separately, Ivaylo Mirchev, another co-leader of Yes, Bulgaria, addressed National Television on Monday, confirming that unification with DSB and CC is feasible provided all involved entities reach a consensus.
Mirchev noted that while the informal coalition has functioned well, there is a public desire for a more consolidated political project. He stressed the necessity of establishing a common presidential candidate, expressing confidence that the political community would select a strong candidate. Regarding the current administration, Mirchev characterized the caretaker Prime Minister, Andrey Gurov, as potentially the most successful caretaker prime minister in Bulgaria’s history.
These statements underscore ongoing efforts among the political figures to solidify a unified front ahead of future electoral cycles.
