"I will see whether there are like-minded people with whom we can do something to help Bulgaria", this country’s caretaker Minister of Finance Assen Vassilev said for the Bulgarian National Radio on the occasion of the assumptions that he would form a party together with caretaker Minister of Economy Kiril Petkov. 

“I will not participate in political projects while i am part of the caretaker cabinet”, noted Assen Vassilev. "Currently I am focused only on the amendment of the state budget, because we want this country to have stable finances," said Minister Assen Vassilev and added that according to the updated revenue forecast for July and August, this country is expected to collect an additional EUR 100 million. This money should be enough to meet the demands of different social groups, noted Minister Vassilev.
