''Vazrazhdane will propose urgent legislative measures for the immediate extradition of all refugees who do not meet the criteria to be considered refugees'', Kostadin Kostadinov stated in a declaration on behalf of his parliamentary group. The leader of "Vazrazhdane" insisted on the return of refugees from Syria. ''We should do the same thing with the "Ukrainian tourists", Kostadin Kostadinov said.

According to Kostadin Kostadinov, Sofia is currently flooded with illegal migrants, ''especially after the country's entry into Schengen''. The leader of "Vazrazhdane" presented a reference requested by the party, according to which there are officially 28,000 refugees from Syria in Bulgaria, another 54,000 Ukrainians, or more than 100,000 emigrants.
