“We see attempts from all sides to block the forming of a regular government”said Nikolay Denkov, Premier Designate of We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria. In his words, there is a big division on which direction Bulgaria will go in the coming years and the stakes are high. He expressed dissatisfaction that during the voting at the National Assembly Committee on Legal Affairs, GERB - SDS "crippled" many of the amendments to Judicial Systems Act, which will not lead to reforms.

"There is fierce resistance to the formation of a regular government", said MP Atanas Atanasov, co-chairman of the Democratic Bulgaria. One of the reasons for this is the draft legislation drawn up by We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria aimed at changing the security system. "We have seen breakthroughs against the backdrop of the war in Ukraine. Russian agents have been fully activated", the politician said for Nova TV.
