Parties and candidates for MPs should build their pre-election campaigns on competing programs and working solutions for a way out of the crisis and not on personal attacks, President Rumen Radev has told politicians. According to him, in this way, voter turnout would rise and high legitimacy of the vote would be achieved.

The Bulgarian head of state also pointed out the need for parties not to burn bridges between each other, because in a few weeks they would have to work for a governing majority and form a government.

President Rumen Radev has met with representatives of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. On August 31, the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights started its mission monitoring the early parliamentary vote on October 2.
