Six Red MPs leave the BSP parliamentary group and the party. These are Krassimir Yankov, Valeri Zhablyanov, Nikolay Ivanov, Lalo Kirilov, Georgi Andreev, and Dimitar Stoyanov.

The six stood together on the rostrum outside the old Party House to announce their decision.

The constant change of ideological image of the party has caused a lack of identification, criticized Yankov. He explained that the election was unconstitutional.

All six remain deputies until the end of their mandate to fulfill their commitments to their constituents.

We are ending our membership in the BSP, but we remain socialists, Krassimir Yankov said.

I am not going to leave the BSP because the party leadership left it with its policy, I am still a member, Zhablyanov said. The attempt to turn the BSP into a right-wing party is a real threat to democracy, he added.

Krassimir Yankov and Valeri Zhablyanov were competing with Cornelia Ninova for the leadership position, but obtained 1,118 and 759 votes, respectively. And after a vote among the delegates to the 50th Congress of the party, both did not enter the National Council.

Wait for details.
