Sofia: A new Bulgarian political party launched yesterday months before an election, aiming to fight corruption, boost economic growth and improve living standards.
Yes Bulgaria, led by former justice minister in centre-right government Hristo Ivanov, will take part in early parliamentary election expected to be held in March or April.
The Balkan country has been in political limbo since centre-right Prime Minister Boiko Borisov resigned following victory of Rumen Radev, a Russia-friendly candidate backed by opposition Socialists, in a November presidential election. Yes Bulgaria said that it aimed to capitalise on voters’ disenchantment with a corruption-tainted political establishment in the Black Sea state, which is likely to have its seventh government in the past four years this spring.
