Yane Yanev (Bulgarian: Яне Янев, born 22 April 1971) is a Bulgarian politician, leader of the center-right opposition party Order, Law and Justice and a member of the Bulgarian National Assembly. Known as an "anti-corruption hawk" that has brought to light many political scandals, Yanev is one of the most famous political players to emerge in Bulgaria in the past decade.[1] His stated political mission is the adoption of a new constitution, to replace the one adopted in the early 1990s with the fall of the former communist regime.[2] Yanev has stated that he believes only such a "far-reaching and radical change"[3] will allow Bulgaria to end the period of transition[3] from communism to a law-abiding, democratic society. Following repeated threats concerning his life and health a Bulgarian-Israeli team has assumed twenty-four-hour security over the leader of RZS Yane Yanev, the press center of the party declared.[4]
