Dzhevdet Ibryam Chakarov is a Turkish Bulgarian politician who is a long term and current Member of the National Assembly of Bulgaria. A member of the DPS party, he also served as the Minister of Environment and Waters from 2005 to 2009.[1] Since 2024, Chakarov has been the co-leader of the DPS party alongside Delyan Peevski.[2]
