After a three-month delay, the Sofia City Council has elected its chairman - this is Tsvetomir Petrov from PP-DB-Save Sofia. His candidacy was supported by 47 municipal councilors, while Plamen Danailov nominated by ITN received four votes, and Emil Dimitrov from "Vazrazhdane" - three.
Tsvetomir Petrov will remain at the head of the city council until July this year, after which a new chairman will be elected. This was agreed upon by the political groups before the vote, in order to avoid early local elections.
"Compromise and permanent political dialogue will be the basis of the work of the Sofia City Council", its new chairman said. According to him, compromises that are negative to the city must not be allowed.
Tsvetomir Petrov was born in 1990 and has a master's degree in management and administration. He worked in the regional administration of Sofia, in the Ministry of Environment and Waters. During the last elections for the European Parliament, he participated in the lists of VMRO. Since 2020, he has been a member of "We Continue the Change".
