VMRO, VOLIA and NFSB will run in the July 11 parliamentary elections as a coalition called The Bulgarian Patriots. The leaders of the three parties will not participate in its election lists. The pre-election agreement was signed today, the VMRO reported.
The main priorities around which the coalition unites are raising incomes and pensions, introducing measures against monopolies and cartels, preventing the MRF from governing Bulgaria and leading nationally responsible foreign policy.
We recall that after the patriotic coalition disintegrated before the elections for the 45th National Assembly, none of the patriotic parties managed to cross the 4% threshold.
