Konstantina Kuneva, Bulgarian trade union leader.
Bulgarian Konstantina Kuneva will run for a Member of the European Parliament from the left-wing Greek party Coalition of the Radical Left, also known as SYRIZA.

Besides Kuneva, who is a trade union leader, among the 14 non-party candidates who will run on a SYRIZA ticket in next month's elections to the European Parliament are a Roma activist, as well as journalists.
