15 left-wing formations united for a new beginning by signing a document on the eve of the traditional Buzludzha council , reported by BNT. Thousands of people are there to mark 133 years since the beginning of the socialist movement in Bulgaria. At the symbolic place for the leftist community in our country, on the Historical meadow under the peak, an address to the Bulgarian people was read from the stage. The slogan of the assembly rally this year also sounds symbolic. "Together! The beginning is Buzludzha!".
And to declare their support on the spot are iconic names of the BSP such as the president Georgi Parvanov, Rumen Petkov, Maya Manolova, Tatiana Doncheva and a number of others together with the current leadership of the BSP in the person of Borislav Gutsanov and Atanas Zafirov.< /strong>
Cornelia Ninova was not present, during the week she declared that she would not go to the assembly. This year's statistics on preliminary requests show that 30 percent more people went to Buzludzha than in previous years.
"Now we are expected to join hands and work seriously. There is no turning back. The leaders left their signatures, but the hard part lies ahead. We have to make a strong campaign, rotate new people into the lists, and we will win, as we won 25 years ago.", said Georgi Parvanov.
The last few years have been tough. But it is precisely the realization that Bulgaria must have a real alternative, to be a socially just, legal state, that perhaps led to a realization both in the BSP and in the other left-wing formations that we will achieve nothing if we are divided. We tried everything. What we have not tried so far is to get together, to be together, to work together for these ideas and principles behind which every single left-wing formation stands. That is why we welcome today's holiday with the hope that something positive is happening against the background of this political quagmire that Bulgaria has fallen into," said Christian Vigenin.
