The political formation "We Continue the Change" categorically rejected the possibility of jointly nominating a presidential candidate with the GERB party. The official position was announced through the organization's official Facebook profile, directly quoting leader Asen Vasilev.
The distributed statement contains a clear message to political allies and the electorate: anyone who decides to switch to GERB automatically loses the support of "We Continue the Change". This position corresponds with Asen Vasilev's recent appearance on Konstantin Volkov's podcast, where topics related to future political alliances were addressed.
Additional context was presented during a forum held in June, titled "Presidential Elections 2026: The Democratic Community on the Path to Victory". During this forum, participants officially announced their intention to nominate a single presidential candidate from the democratic space.
The political confrontation between the two formations is emerging as a key moment in the upcoming presidential campaign. The categorical position of "We Continue the Change" clearly demonstrates their unwillingness to compromise with GERB and maintains distance in their political positioning.
This approach by Asen Vasilev and his political formation reinforces the thesis of maintaining an independent political identity and lack of readiness for broad coalition agreements with traditional political players.
