GERB will return the government forming mandate to the president fulfilled and the names of the ministers will become clear on Monday, MP Denitsa Sacheva has told BNT. According to her, the party is currently negotiating with all parliamentary forces except for BSP, who announced that they would not support the cabinet project.

The co-chairman of We Continue the Change-DB, Kiril Petkov, commented that the only chance of not going to elections soon is in the second mandate.

"The configuration in the parliament is barren and there is no way to produce an effective government, therefore the best solution is new elections," leader of "Vazrazhdane" Kostadin Kostadinov, said.

MRF chairman Mustafa Karadayi called for dialogue and added that his party would take seriously the proposal for an expert government of the nominee for Prime Minister Maria Gabriel.

The smallest political force in parliament "There is Such a People" would support the project cabinet of GERB, because if a new budget was not adopted, the state would stop functioning, party leader Slavi Trifonov announced.
