Bulgaria's Political Turmoil Draws Attention from Putin and Pro-Russian Party.
Bulgaria's political landscape has been shaken up by the surprise success of the pro-Russian party, "There is Such a People," in the recent parliamentary elections. The party, led by TV personality Slavi Trifonov, won 17% of the vote and is now the second-largest party in parliament. The ruling party, GERB, won the most votes but fell short of a majority. The election results have raised concerns about the country's future direction and stability.
