Radev set for Bulgaria win

The election marks Bulgaria's eighth attempt in five years to form a stable government.

Radev's coalition is projected to win nearly 40% of the vote, far ahead of the conservative GERB party led by Boiko Borissov.

Radev's opposition to military aid for Ukraine and sanctions against Moscow has raised concerns among European allies.

High voter turnout suggests a strong public desire for change in the Balkan nation.
