The new political party "Save Sofia" has no interest in early parliamentary elections. The party's goal is the local vote in the autumn, as talks are already underway with "We Continue the Change" and "Democratic Bulgaria".

This was what chair Boris Bonev told the BNR and added that the goal is victory in Sofia in the first round and the first task would be improvement of the city residential areas. The leader of "Save Sofia" defined his party as balanced with left-wing social policy and right-wing policy when it comes to business development. When it comes to local politics, pragmatic and concrete decisions are much more important than leftist or rightist ideology, Bonev commented.
