Velichie political party was registered on July 25, 2023, with headquarters in Vetrino. It was founded by Ivelin Mihailov, creator of the tourist attraction "Historical Park" near Varna and Nikolay Markov, who worked as an officer in the national security system for many years, BGNES writes. 

The party is trying to break into the political scene as an alternative to "Vazrazhdane". Among its main goals, it defines the reformation of the political system and strengthening the authority of the state institutions on the basis of the real representation of the will of the people, protection of the national dignity, national interests and geopolitical location of Bulgaria, as well as the army, police and special services serving the Bulgarian people and country, not foreign or personal interests. The party opposes the construction of wind generators in Varna.
