During her address at the inaugural sitting of the 52nd National Assembly, Democratic Bulgaria MP Nadejda Iordanova stated that her parliamentary group respected the vote of the Bulgarian people and would assume the role of the opposition, asserting they would remain actively involved. Iordanova noted that the Assembly convened during a period when Bulgarian society sought an end to a protracted political crisis. She emphasized that the public demands tangible proof that politics can serve its citizens, rather than serving itself.
Iordanova observed that the leading political force had secured a majority and was tasked with governing with a significant responsibility. She stated that the mandate given to Progressive Bulgaria was paramount, particularly regarding the dismantling of what she termed the “Borissov-Peevski model,” which had been the focus of public protests. According to Iordanova, the core demand from the people was an end to a state perceived as being under siege, and an end to institutional practices that served powerful interests over the citizenry.
She affirmed that her group would consistently defend the rule of law. Throughout her speech, Iordanova maintained that the focus must remain on accountability, ensuring that political actions are guided by the will of the people, and not by vested interests. Her statements underscored a commitment to robust opposition oversight within the new legislative body.
