Vazrazhdane will submit amendments to the Law on Religions, the press centre of the party has announced.
The amendments are going to protect the Bulgarian Orthodox Church as the only such church. “At Christmas, the Supreme Court of Cassation decided to give us “the pleasure” of a registration of a second Orthodox church,” the party’s leader Kostadin Kostadinov wrote on Facebook. “We are starting work on the amendment today, by force of which only the Bulgarian Patriarchate will have the right to use the combination of words “Bulgarian Orthodox Church”, and we shall explicitly specify that they cannot be used by other religious organizations – whether they have added words or phrases to it or not. The bill will be submitted on the first day possible – 30 December,” Kostadinov writes.
