[8] GERB official and Deputy Prime Minister Tomislav Donchev acknowledged that party members were being siphoned away to the new Republicans for Bulgaria, but stated that this would not play in the latter's favour, as he opined that "you can take part of the membership, but not from the support base".

The two formed the National Union of the Right, a right-wing, conservative and anti-communist political movement seeking to "go back to the roots of the Bulgarian right".
