The intrigue is enhanced by the fact that he is one of the founders of the DB party, and its coalition partner PP has already nominated businessman Vasil Terziev
The nominations for who will be a candidate for mayor in Sofia in the elections at the end of October are becoming more and more fierce on the right. As of today, there is another contender for the post.
“Democratic Bulgaria” is in a parliamentary coalition with “Continuing the change”, SDS is in a coalition with GERB, but the old blue supporters of the right in the capital do not seem to like their elected officials.
PP have already announced that they are promoting businessman Vasil Terziev. DB’s attitude is not entirely clear.
GERB is expected to nominate the current chairman of the Metropolitan Municipal Council, Georgi Georgiev. Maybe the SDS will support him.
However, iconic figures from the right write “We nominate Prof. Vili Lilkov for mayor of Sofia in the local elections in 2023.” and collect a subscription.
Among the names published on Facebook, there are old sedesars: functionaries such as Nadezhda Neinski, Muravey Radev, Vanyo Sharkov, Ivan Sotirov, Petar Moskov and famous blue intellectuals – the composer Stefan Dimitrov, the singers Bogdana Karadocheva and Vasko Krpkata, the musician Ivan Lechev, the director Teddy Moskov , the actress Anya Pencheva, writers, journalists, scientists.
