Just 8% of Bulgarians assess positively the activity of the 49th National Assembly; 53% - have negative assessment and 39% have no opinion. When it comes to the government, approval for it is 20%, disapproval - 37%, and 43% have no opinion. This is shown by the results of a survey by "Alpha Research", carried out between June 20-26, 2023, among 1,000 adult Bulgarian citizens, by using the method of a direct standardized interview.

According to the poll, trust in Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov is 26%, distrust is 30%, and 44% of those asked are neutral. Despite weak support for the parliament and the government, 48% say that forming a cabinet between the top two political forces was not ideal, but was the better option for the country.
