Bulgarian People's Union

Bulgarian People's Union

The Bulgarian People's Union ("Balgarski Naroden Sajuz") is an electoral alliance (center-right) in Bulgaria. At the last legislative elections, 25 june 2005, it won 5.7 % of the popular vote and 13 out of 240 seats. The Union is formed by the Bulgarian Agrarian People's Union-People's Union ("Balgarski Zemedelski Naroden Sajuz-Naroden Sajuz"), the Internal Macedonian Revolutionary Organization - Bulgarian National Movement ("Vatreshna Makedonska Revolyucionna Organizaciya-Balgarsko Nacionalno Dvizhenie") and the Union of Free Democrats ("Sajuz na svobodnite demokrati").

The last months (2006) several corruption scandals were connected to the leader of BPU - the former mayor of capital city of Sofia - Stefan Sofiansky.

The last political surveys (March'2006) show the serious decreasing of the people support for BPU. Less than only 2% of the political support moves today this party to a position behind BSP (socialists / communists party), ATAKA (nationalists party), NDSV (Simeon II former king party) and UDF.
