Nikolay Rashkov
Nikolay Rashkov is the mayor of Gorna Oryahovitsa, Bulgaria, who came to prominence after winning the local elections in the fall of 2023 as a candidate from the 'Direct Democracy' party, breaking a 12-year rule by GERB. He quickly positioned himself against the status quo, reporting alleged irregularities by the former mayor, Dobromir Dobrev. However, Rashkov's tenure has been marred by controversy, as he is currently under investigation by the Anti-Corruption Commission for a conflict of interest related to a business he previously co-owned. Recently, he announced his affiliation with the 'DPS-Novo Nachalo' party led by Delian Peevski, marking his transition amidst a wave of similar shifts among local leaders.
