Bulgarians are voting Sunday to elect a new president amid economic hardship and Black Sea shipping attacks.
Bulgarians are voting Sunday to elect their next president in a campaign centred on growing economic hardship and drone attacks on Black Sea shipping.
The race is expected to be decided in a runoff between incumbent President Iliana Yotova, backed by Prime Minister Rumen Radev's Moscow-friendly Progressive Bulgaria party, and former caretaker Prime Minister Andrey Gyurov, backed by pro-Western opposition parties.
The vote is the first major test for Radev's party following its April election triumph. Despite a record number of candidates standing, the contest between these two frontrunners is anticipated to determine the outcome.
