Sofia Mayor's Party Runs Alone in Local Elections

Politics | July 28, 2007, Saturday // 00:00

GERB party is not going to cooperate with the socialist and Turkish ethnic formations at the forthcoming local elections, the informal leader Sofia Mayor Boyko Borisov said Saturday.

Borissov said also the current amendments in the law, which provides for direct election of district mayors, are kind of attack against him.

In his opinion the changes have not been carefully considered and trigger confusion as far as the administrative order and municipal budgets' allocation are concerned.

"Obviously, the aim of the ruling coalition is to crush the state," Mayor Borissov ended.

There will be elected a total of 25 district mayors in Sofia and other six in the seaside city of Varna.
