Bulgaria must shape its future with a clear resolve and hard work, stated Minister of Regional Development Rosen Plevneliev at his nomination for presidential candidate by the GERB ruling party.
Plevneliev will represent center-right GERB together with his cabinet colleague, acting Bulgarian Minister of Justice Margarita Popova, it was announced at a press conference Sunday afternoon.
"I firmly believe that progress and success can happen only when we know where we're going - when we achieve clear priorities and work hard along the way," stated Plevneliev at his nomination.
He added that his professional life up to now is a manifestation of this belief, describing himself as a "man of action."
Of late, Minister Plevneliev has spoken out in support of a new type of politics that stays clear of politicization and is rather directed at achieving specific and tangible results in people's lives.
Opinion polls conducted over the summer show that the GERB candidate - irrespective of who he is - has by far the largest chances to win the October 23 presidential electiosn.
GERB had chosen to present its candidacy unusually late for Bulgarian political custom.
