History

On December 1, 2013, the Association of Bulgarian Pensioners, Bulgarian Criminal Detachment, Association of Argoecological Producers and others. establish the Bulgarian National Unification party with Georgi Georgiev as chairman.[1] The party describes itself as center-left and patriotic. BNO states that it will fight for a complete revision of the status quo, raising the standard of living by stimulating the economy and offering better conditions for small and medium-sized businesses.

On March 20, 2014, BNO was officially registered by the court.[2]

BNO participated in several elections, but received more media attention in 2016, when it nominated Mityo Pishtova for presidential candidate.[3] In 2019, Evgenia Baneva was nominated as an MEP, but soon after they withdrew their support for her.[4]

In February 2021, BNO became a mandate holder and submitted its lists for the parliamentary elections in April to the Civil Platform "Bulgarian Summer", which was established by businessman Vasil Bozhkov.[5]
