Dzhevdet Chakarov: MRF will have a new chairman and his name will not be Delyan Peevski

"It is illogical for a person who was expelled from the Central Operative Bureau (COB) of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms (MRF) by a decision from August 27, 2024, and confirmed by the Central Council (CC) of the MRF on September 23, 2024, to continue acting like a chairman of the MRF and to mislead the Bulgarian public, one of the party's two chairmen, Dzhevdet Chakarov, said in a position to the media on October 31.

We remind all our members and supporters, as well as the Bulgarian society, that the persons Delyan Peevski, Halil Letifov, Stanislav Anastassov, Yordan Tsonev, Iskra Mihaylova, Hamid Hamid, Erten Anisova, Radoslav Revanski are not part of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms and do not represent the ideas and values of the party that we have been following for 35 years with our leader Dr Ahmed Dogan.

MRF is a living organism and strictly follows its Charter and the decisions of its collective bodies.There are no "straw men" in the party and the voice of every member is heard and taken into account.

Mr Peevski and his avatars have the right to develop in their new political project - "New Beginning", which will only contribute to the destruction of democracy in Bulgaria," Chakarov said.

The national conference of the MRF will be on a different date, which the Bulgarian public will find out soon and the party will have its new chairman and his name will not be Delyan Slavchev Peevski, Chakarov's position reads.

We call on all members, activists and supporters of the MRF not to succumb to manipulative statements and allegations of persons expelled from the party, which have the sole purpose of changing the profile and values of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms.

MRF is where its founder, first chairman and only leader Dr Ahmed Dogan is, the position further states.
