The Movement for Rights and Freedoms will not support GERB for a new constitution and for convening a Grand National Assembly. This was stated at a briefing by the chairman of the movement Mustafa Karadaya, BNR reports.
"A new constitution or changes should address identified shortcomings in the current constitution and should aim to strengthen democratic values," the party leader said.
According to the MRF, the draft constitution submitted by GERB is yet another blow against democracy and statehood. 
"The project denies universal values ​​- freedom, peace, humanism, equality, justice and tolerance. The newly proposed constitution categorically does not meet the stated request for a restart," Karadaya stressed.
120 votes of parliamentary support are needed to submit GERB's proposal for a new constitution in parliament.
