Rumen Radev wins Bulgarian election

Radev's runaway victory has raised hopes among Bulgarians for a period of stability after decades of weak and unstable governments.

His win allows him to head the nation's first single-party administration in nearly thirty years, potentially reshaping Bulgaria's role within the EU. However, his friendly stance toward Moscow has sparked concern among Western allies regarding the unity of the bloc's foreign policy.

Analysts suggest that Radev's ability to deliver on his anti-corruption promises will be the ultimate test of his new mandate.
