We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria (PP/DB), which came second in the 27 October parliamentary election, sent the other political forces to be represented in parliament a “Declaration for ridding the institutions and the election process of corruptive influences”, which proposes a cordon sanitaire around Delyan Peevski, leader of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms-New Beginning and his parliamentary group.
The construction around the politician, sanctioned under the Global Magintsky Act, regarding whom there exist justified suspicions of tampering with the democratic processes, must be placed in isolation so as to restore the normal political process, the document reads.
Support for the declaration is a sine qua non for beginning political consultations on constituting the new National Assembly, the PP/DB press service writes.
