The political party “Ataka” opened their electoral campaign for European parliament with a summit on the square “May 4th” in the city Batak.

“We chose Batak, because it is a signature Bulgarian city, a Golgotha of the country”, stated the leader of “Ataka” Volen Siderov.

He added that the representatives of the party in the European Parliament will defend the nation’s cause alone.

Siderov stated that the “main course of euromembers of parliament from “Ataka” will be to prevent the joining of Turkey in the European Union”.

The leader of “Ataka” presented some of the candidates for members of parliament in the European Parliament. The leader of the list of 17 people is the current EU deputee Dimitar Stoyanov.
