Fast elections are risky, Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev has told the press in Sofia. “I am afraid that possible fast elections will lead to even greater instability, to an even more fragmented National Assembly that will have a lesser capacity to function effectively”, he has added. He has called for forming a pro-European government united around clear priorities including work to prepare the Bulgarian presidency of the European Union. “If we choose to deal with elections and political squabbling until June, thus creating extreme instability of the state, we shall lose the EU presidency. This would be a colossal failure. The country will thus end up in the corner of the European Union for the coming 14 years”, Plevneliev has warned.
