Our party intends to participate seriously in these elections and we are doing so. How and in what way our coalition will be registered is another matter. The fact is that what the CEC was subjected to in this registration process was unprecedented. I feel sorry for them, because the CEC should be a body that should have the ability to independently work, order and accept documents. In fact, the CEC was put in this situation under pressure that it had to invent new rules, to change rules that have been in place for decades, namely – first in line is first in line. The CEC became a victim of pressure. This is what he announced to Lili Marinkova in the "FACTS" studio. and the show “Conversation“ Rumen Yonchev, chairman of the Agricultural People's Union. His party is part of the coalition with "Democracy, Rights and Freedoms - DPS" (DPS of Dogan) and "Fair Bulgaria united patriots" (ASSEMBLY).

“I don't know who is pushing them, CEC, but the procedure has been clear for decades – you go, sit at the table, take out the folder, submit your documents and register for the elections. This procedure was blown up by the CEC. The CEC is not a court to decide - they are the registrar of the parties for the elections, they do not dispense justice. Disputes are now settled in court. We have submitted the necessary documents, and to me the two names referred to in this way are different. It is simply obvious that CEC members were pressured to register. No law can prohibit and prevent pressure from politicians”, added the guest.
