Delyan Peevski is running for chairman of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms, MRF. Whether he will be elected or not will become clear on 24 February when the party will hold a national conference, at which the new leader of MRF will be elected.

The honorary leader of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms Ahmed Dogan described Peevski as a phenomenon in Bulgarian politics in the past 5-6 months. “He is hyperactive, and thanks to his combinatorial and mediation skills he has succeeded in bringing the focus of power back into the Bulgarian parliament. And from the most reviled person, he has now turned into an important partner for all parliamentary groups,” he said.
