We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria (PP/DB), which came second in the 27 October parliamentary election, sent the other political forces to be represented in parliament a “Declaration for ridding the institutions and the election process of corruptive influences”, which proposes a cordon sanitaire around Delyan Peevski, leader of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms-New Beginning and his parliamentary group.
