"We have an extremely low voter turnout - 32%, which is absolutely unprecedented. The Bulgarian political system has crashed", Vazrazhdane leader Kostadin Kostadinov said at a press conference. According to him, given the current post-election situation, it is impossible to form a stable government, and even if such a government were formed, it would represent no more than 15% of Bulgarians with voting rights.

''Vazrazhdane’s main task is to prevent Bulgaria from entering the escalating conflict in Ukraine. If Bulgaria maintains its current foreign policy course, it will be forced to join the military conflict in Ukraine", Kostadinov said. Kostadin Kostadinov said that the party will focus on this issue in the coming weeks. He explained that his party's goal is to form a separate parliamentary group in the European Parliament, and they are already negotiating with 14 political forces from 14 countries.
