He participates in the part “Economy: what Bulgaria we want”.

“It was an absolute honor to work for the taxpayer in the way I work for my own money, and if I can do similar actions for them in the future, it will be a source of pride for me again,” Petkov said, hours before it became clear that Slavi Trifonov’s party “There is such a people” sought him out with a proposal to become a minister in their cabinet, but he refused.
