The National Council of Continue the Change (CC) authorized the party's Executive Council to finalize a coalition agreement with Democratic Bulgaria for the upcoming snap parliamentary elections, targeting completion by January 31. The agreement will maintain current proportional representation and precinct election commission member allocation and disallow the coalition from nominating expelled individuals.

CC aims to dismantle corruption in Bulgaria through legislative reforms ensuring freedom and justice. With Bulgaria now in the euro area, discussions on national goals and international positioning are emphasized.

CC Chair Assen Vassilev advocates for EU federalization and a common defense to ensure security. He also expressed concerns about potential funding loss under the Recovery and Resilience Plan due to political shifts. The caretaker government’s primary role is to ensure fair elections, with ongoing discussions regarding potential appointments for key positions.
