Evgeni Stefanov Bakardzhiev (Bulgarian: Евгений Стефанов Бакърджиев) (born 10 February 1955) is a Bulgarian politician who served as vice-Prime Minister and Minister of Regional Development and Public Works between 1997 and 1999.[1]
Life
During the communist period, Bakardzhiev received an education in a technical field, specializing in Industrial and Civil Construction.[2]
In the 1990s, following the beginning of the democratic transition, he entered politics as part of the Bulgarian Agrarian National Union "Nikola Petkov" (Bulgarian: Българския земеделски народен съюз „Никола Петков“) and later became an influential member of the UDF,[3] characterized as being among the "third wave" politicians in the party. Bakardzhiev was a deputy in the 38th and 39th National Parliaments.[1]
In November 2001, following criticisms leveled at the UDF leadership, he was expelled from the party. On 1 December 2001, Bakardzhiev established the Bulgarian Democratic Union "Radicals" (Bulgarian: Български демократичен съюз "Радикали").[4]
Bakardzhiev has been married three times. In addition to his native Bulgarian, he is conversant in Russian and English.[2]
