MEPs elected from the coalition included VMRO's vice-chairman Angel Djambazki and BWC leader Nikolay Barekov.
In August 2014, a coalition agreement between the NFSB and VMRO called Patriotic Front was signed for the upcoming parliamentary elections[17] with the official goal of "a revival of the Bulgarian economy, a fight against monopolies, achieving modern education and healthcare, and a fair and uncorrupt judiciary."
In the 2016 presidential election, party leader Karakachanov threw his hat in the ring again, this time finishing third with over 14 percent of the vote.
[19] In addition to the unprecedented success at the national level, at the 2019 European Parliament election, VMRO again surpassed expectations by sending two MEPs to the EU Parliament: Angel Djambazki and film director and screenwriter Andrei Slabakov, an unexpected winner who despite not being a party member was elected by preferential vote.
Ahead of the second 2021 parliamentary election, Volya formed an electoral alliance with the NFSB[20] and VMRO called Bulgarian Patriots.
[21] That alliance won fewer votes than VMRO secured as a standalone party in the preceding election and was quickly dissolved.
On 17 February 2024, Krasimir Karakachanov was re-elected as party chairman by an extraordinary congress, overcoming an attempt by MEP Angel Dzhambanski to take the helm.
It is known as a strongly nationalist and Orthodox Christian party[2] which claims to continue the mission of the historic IMRO and strives for the recognition of the Bulgarian ethnicity and language of the Slavic population of North Macedonia.
[10] Likewise, it is critical of Bulgarian Turks and unwelcoming of Islam in Bulgaria, calling on the government to "stop the sounds of terror coming from minarets".
It calls for a fundamental change of direction and a "conservative wave" and argues against the "Liberal utopia" ideas that dominate the block, which the party cites as gender ideology, mass migration, and "colonial neoliberalism."
The party also opposes the accession of Turkey to the European Union and wants to reform or end many of the EU's migration policies to "prevent Brussels from committing suicide in Europe."
