Asen Vasilev, leader of We Continue the Change, compared the 2027 budget to "a skyscraper built on the foundations of a one-story house." He said the macroeconomic framework underestimates inflation and cuts investment by billions. According to him, the plan locks in lasting impoverishment and adds 1.9 billion euros in new tax burden. Vasilev argued that the combined effect pushes the country toward recession.
