Former caretaker ministers Kiril Petkov and Assen Vassilev will announce their political project "We Continue the Change" today. In an invitation to the media, they say that together with like-minded people they will present their ideas for future participation in the political life of the country.

According to Kiril Petkov, the project will include people with a high level of integrity and successful careers outside politics, in order to remain independent. They will work for maintaining the current level of taxes, attracting investments, and combating corruption. The former ministers said that despite the fact they support President Rumen Radev, the new project will not be his party.
