Bulgarian President Rumen Radev Hands Over Government Mandate
Bulgarian President Rumen Radev has handed over the mandate to form a government to the reformist coalition «We Continue the Changes – Democratic Bulgaria,» but its representative, Nikolay Denkov, immediately returned it.
Future of Government Formation in Bulgaria
This decision has led to the possibility of forming a government in the 50th National Assembly being rejected, bringing the country closer to its seventh general election in just three years.
Challenges Faced by the Coalition
The coalition, which became the second largest political force in parliament, had hoped for support from other deputies in working on anti-corruption laws, but faced insufficient support.
Stable Majority Unattainable
Nikolay Denkov stated that it is impossible to form a stable majority in the current parliament and emphasized that their political force will not change its approach.
Readiness for Negotiations
The «We Continue the Changes – Democratic Bulgaria» party has expressed readiness to negotiate with the next political force that receives the mandate to form a government.
