"GERB will propose a government of experts who can stabilise Bulgaria", the party’s leader Boyko Borissov wrote in a Facebook post. On Monday, President Rumen Radev is to hand the first government-forming mandate to the biggest political force GERB/SDS

 Borissov has informed European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen of his intentions during the European People’s Party meeting in Athens. Boyko Borissov noted that he will continue the dialogue with all parliamentary parties, because in his view Bulgaria needs a cabinet that will speed up the work on the adoption of all laws under the Recovery and Resilience Plan.

"Despite the crises we are going through, we have reaffirmed Bulgaria's Euro-Atlantic orientation", Borissov wrote further referring to the provision of military aid to Ukraine, the acquisition of 8 more F-16 aircraft, etc.
