The opposition party Vazrazhdane will lodge an appeal with the Constitutional Court today, challenging the introduction of the green certificate.  

For the purpose the party has collected the 48 signatures necessary at the National Assembly – 18 MPs from There Is Such a People, 17 MPs from GERB, as well as the entire Vazrazhdane parliamentary group.

Vazrazhdane leader Kostadin Kostadinov described the dispute with PM Kiril Petkov over the abolition of the green certificate as “unnecessary”. “I am not accustomed to recording the conversations I have with the people I talk to, I don’t know why he is worried he may have committed to some kind of deadline,” Kostadinov said.
