"According to an exit poll conducted by Sofia-based Alpha Research, Rumen Radev's Progressive Bulgaria party is projected to win 38.1 percent of the vote, leading the parliamentary election results. Former Prime Minister Boyko Borissov's conservative GERB party is trailing with 15.9 percent, while the reformist We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria coalition is expected to finish third with 14.1 percent."
"Radev stated, 'We will do everything possible not to allow us to go [to elections] again. It is ruinous for Bulgaria.' He emphasized the need for a regular and stable government, indicating readiness to consider various options for governance."
"The Balkan country has experienced fragmented parliaments in recent years, with coalitions failing to last more than a year since 2021. Radev's commitment to addressing the oligarchic governance model reflects his support for the anticorruption protests that mobilized many young Bulgarians."
