Prime Minister Boyko Borissov has announced that his party will offer an option of forming a new government. Upon opening the regular government meeting, he congratulated the ministers over the election victory with the words: "We can say with honor and pride that we have fulfilled absolutely all our commitments and promises, so with our experience, expertise and 10% lead over the second party we are obliged to offer a government."

According to him, new elections were not a good option. Boyko Borissov advised "fellow politician Slavi Trifonov", leader of the second political force “There Is Such a People” (ITN) to take responsibility and start organizing the composition of his cabinet. "We will offer a cabinet, they will not approve it and then it would be his turn," the Prime Minister said.
