With a statement read in Parliament, "We Continue the Change" urged Bulgarian chief prosecutor Ivan Geshev to resign because he did not meet the moral standards for the position. The party supports the arguments presented by Justice Minister Nadezhda Yordanova for the Geshev's early dismissal - blatant violations, systematic failure to perform his duties and undermining the prestige of the judiciary.

"The prosecutor's office should investigate the actual criminals and the abuse of public funds, it is supposed to to be working for the good of the Bulgarian citizens", the declaration reads. It also points out that only "two brave women - Atanaska Disheva and Olga Kerelska" have dared to support the proposal to dismiss the prosecutor general.
