"Progressive Bulgaria" has closed its campaign. Radev: Our goal is a full majority. Without coalitions with GERB, PP-DB and DPS  - 1

"Progressive Bulgaria" closed its election campaign three days before the early parliamentary elections on April 19. The event took place at the "8888" Arena and brought together prominent representatives of the party, candidates for deputies and numerous sympathizers, a FOCUS reporter reported.

All candidates for parliamentarians from the lists of "Progressive Bulgaria" were presented on stage. At the beginning, it was announced that Rumen Radev's party would be established in Veliko Tarnovo tomorrow (April 17).

We are not gathered here by social networks, as some political charlatans claim – The idea of justice in Bulgaria is ours. This was stated by the leader of "Progressive Bulgaria" Rumen Radev.

"Progressive Bulgaria" will not go down the path of assemblies. There will be no coalition with Borisov, a coalition with PP-DB, who ruined the Constitution and are trying to taint the elections, is unwanted by our supporters. Any interaction with their common mentor Peevski is absolutely unacceptable. Our goal is a complete majority. I have traveled the whole country - full halls and full squares. These full halls give me hope that we can achieve this majority, but we need full mobilization. We have two days to convince people that their vote can change everything. We do not promise miracles, but we promise rules. We will not allow it, we will work for a just and legal state – the dilemma on Sunday is simple: either PB or a return to the vicious cycle of assemblies – of Peevski, Borisov and Vassilev. Every vote for small parties will remain just a statistic.

"I know from experience what we can do when we are united - we have the talent, we have the spirit, let's believe in our strength. We are ready, we can, we will succeed", said the leader of the list in the 16th Plovdiv-city MIR Vladimir Nikolov.

"Today we are starting to write a new page in Bulgaria - I am the youngest leader of the PB lists, but youth is not a vice, it is energy, a clear conscience and ambition with which to act. We do not promise an easy path, but I promise an honest one. While we remain silent, others decide our future. Bulgaria should be a home, not a place to run away from - Bulgaria belongs to the people, it is not the property of a few", said Ivet Goranova, who is the leader of the list of the "Progressive Bulgaria" coalition in the 11th MIR - Lovech.
