Quotes by the four MPs - incumbent Sergey Stanishev, Tatyana Doncheva, Mladen Chervenyakov, and Yanaki Stoilov, who ran for the position of Chair of the Bulgarian Socialist Party during Sunday's emergency Congress:

"I think I owe this to the Party – not to leave my position, not to stop being the Chair of the National Council, but to continue to do what I have been doing, and to correct it where I have done it wrong. I don’t think it would be right to do the convenient thing: to withdraw, and thus, in my view, to avoid taking responsibility."

Sergey Stanishev

 

"If you vote for me, you should note that you are voting for a new Congress. The most important thing for me is to start working on assessing the 100 days of the present government, and to start creating alternatives to what is happening."

Mladen Chervenyakov

 

"First, we have to break this wall in the society. If we don’t understand why the society has erected a wall of prejudice against us, we will never be in contact with the society in order to be able to explain our policies, however good they might be."

Tatyana Doncheva

 

"Is there anyone here who has not felt that our ship is broken now, and is rapidly sinking. Some of us from the crew found rescue in the Parliament, and we left the second-class passengers to save themselves on their own. Can the ship be saved? Yes, but only if we urgently repair the holes, and change the course. I am taking part in this race not because I want to be the Chair but because there should be an adherent to the leftist course that I sure is going to help the party recover its leading role."

Yanaki Stoilov
