The Sofia Municipal Council will appoint an acting mayor of the "Iskar" district, after Yasen Rusev was removed from office. The decision for his early dismissal was finally confirmed by the Supreme Administrative Court, which upheld the decision of the Sofia - city Administrative Court.
The court ruled that Rusev did not terminate his commercial activity within the legally established period, which constitutes a violation of the requirements for holding the position.
The only possible candidate is Alexander Ivanov. He is currently the deputy mayor of the "Iskar" district.
