Radical change: Krum Zarkov enters the race for BSP leader  - 1

Former Minister of Justice and former Secretary of the President for Legal Affairs Krum Zarkov announced in the program “The Day Begins“ on BNT that he will join the battle for BSP leader.

"Am I talking to a candidate for BSP chairman?

Yes, you can view the conversation that way.“

Are you entering this battle?

Yes, I think I have to. Different visions have emerged in the BSP for the way the party should continue from now on. One of these visions is that of radical change – not just a regrouping, not just a replacement of one person for another, but a complete rethinking of the behavior of the BSP, of its meaning of existence, of its necessity for Bulgarian citizens.

As far as I see that many people are on this wave, I can say that I am their candidate.“

He is categorical that radical change is the only possible for the party and that it should not come to the point where they do not have a single representative in any institution. “This should not be allowed“, he said.
