Conservative Union of the Right

The Conservative Union of the Right (Консервативно обединение на десницата, abbreviated as КОД/KOD) is a conservative Bulgarian political party. Its founder and current leader is the former Minister of Health of Bulgaria, Petar Moskov.

History
The Conservative Union of the Right was founded on 29 March 2019 in Sofia by the former Minister of Health Petar Moskov, as well as other former members of Democrats for Strong Bulgaria. Moskov left the Reformist Bloc because he claimed that it was not right wing enough. His former coalition partners called his party a project of "anti-European authoritarian conservatism".

Political positions
KOD is strongly conservative and right-wing, viewing liberalism and socialism as its two biggest rivals. Moskov declared his opposition to centrism and "popular" parties and tried to impose conservatism as the dominant social force, believing that it supports "rules and values that bring back normality". Therefore, he declared opposition to all other Bulgarian political parties, with the exception of VMRO and NFSB.

Moskov states that the policies of previous right-wing governments are similar to "grandparents watching porn together to see if they will get married". He points to Donald Trump's administration and Viktor Orban's Hungary as examples of the type of right-wing conservatism he would like to impose.

KOD aims to disenfranchise former communists and members of BZNS through a process of "criminal lustration", as well as those with lesser education, from voting in elections or referendums.
