The number of Bulgarians willing to emigrate has decreased, a survey of Ivan Hadjiiski Institute initiated by the Friedrich Ebert Foundation shows. In 2002 fourteen per cent of the surveyed Bulgarians said they would not emigrate, while in 2018 sixty one per cent of the Bulgarians said they were not willing to emigrate . Most of the young Bulgarians are apolitical, the survey further reads. Only 7% of the respondents said that were interested in politics and 50% said they were not interested in making political career. 24% of the Bulgarians supported rightist ideology, 7% of them supported leftist ideology and 23% were supporters of centrist ideas. In 2014 twenty three per cent of the young Bulgarians were right-leaning, 12% of the respondents were left-leaning and 57% of the surveyed Bulgarians were centre-leaning.
