In July 2020 SEC withdrew from United Patriots.[6]

SEC entered a new coalition with far-right political party IMRO[7] but on 17 February 2021 the Central Election Commission did not approve "Middle European Class" for participation in the April 2021 parliamentary election.[8][9] The reason given was "unsealed documents, lack of signature of the party representative and other documentary failures."

On 6 June 2021 SEC was again not approved for participation in the July 2021 parliamentary election but party members became part of Petar Moskov's "National Union of the Right" electoral coalition.[10]

On 17 September 2021 Georgi Manev stepped down as leader of the party and retired from politics. Konstantin Bachiiski became party leader and on 19 September 2021 the party and Volt Bulgaria announced the electoral coalition We Continue the Change[11] led by Kiril Petkov and Asen Vasilev, former caretaker ministers.
