Eurosceptic Radev poised for majority in Bulgarian election  Europe live
"Radev stated that a strong Bulgaria and a strong Europe need critical thinking and pragmatism, indicating that Europe has fallen victim to its own ambition to be a moral leader in a world with new rules."
"Projections from polling agencies put his Progressive Bulgaria grouping at 44%, which would give him an absolute majority of at least 129 seats in the 240-seat parliament."
"Rumen Radev hailed a victory of hope after his formation topped the eighth parliamentary elections in five years, marking a significant political shift."
Rumen Radev's coalition, Progressive Bulgaria, is projected to secure around 130 seats in the 240-seat parliament, achieving an absolute majority. This victory is the first outright parliamentary majority for a single formation in Bulgaria since 1997. Radev emphasized the need for critical thinking and pragmatism in Europe, suggesting that the continent has struggled with its ambitions. Despite the victory, there is a lack of international enthusiasm, with no European leaders publicly congratulating Radev, who is known for his Eurosceptic views and opposition to military support for Ukraine.
