The Reformist Bloc (Bulgarian: Реформаторски блок) is a centre-right electoral alliance in Bulgaria.
History
The coalition agreement to form the alliance was signed on 20 December 2013. The five parties that signed the agreement were: Democrats for a Strong Bulgaria, Bulgaria for Citizens Movement, Union of Democratic Forces, People's Party Freedom and Dignity, and the Bulgarian Agrarian National Union.[6] At the time of signing the coalition had one seat in the European Parliament but none in the National Assembly.
In early August 2014 spokesperson Radan Kanev resigned because of what he said was a lack of unity within the alliance: "The image of a united multi-party coalition was replaced by an image of a traditional coalition with many and often conflicting interests."[7]
Elections
The electoral alliance made its debut in the 2014 European Parliament election. Meglena Kuneva, the leader of Bulgaria for Citizens Movement, was placed as number one on the party's list.[8] However, Svetoslav Malinov from Democrats for Strong Bulgaria won the only place for the alliance in the European Parliament due to the preferential voting in his favour.[9]
