Hristo Ivanov is stepping down as leader of Yes, Bulgaria, one of the parties from the coalition Democratic Bulgaria.
“The election result of Democratic Bulgaria is extremely bad compared to the previous elections for parliament,” Democratic Bulgaria co-chairman Hristo Ivanov commented.
“There has to be accountability. I am resigning as chairman of Yes, Bulgaria. Tomorrow we shall convene the party’s National Council at which we shall propose several things – one is to convene a national conference to elect a new leadership of Yes, Bulgaria,” Hristo Ivanov said. He added that all members of the party’s executive board are also resigning, but that they will all continue to perform their functions until a new leadership is elected.
Democratic Bulgaria co-chairman Atanas Atanasov also resigned as chairman of Democrats for a Strong Bulgaria, another one of the parties from the coalition Democratic Bulgaria.
