President Rumen Radev spoke with Ombudsman Diana Kovacheva as part of the consultations on a caretaker prime minister.

After the meeting with the head of state, Ms. Kovacheva told the media that she could not take up the post because she had been elected as a judge at the European Court of Human Rights. Kovacheva said that her swearing-in was due shortly and that she would soon submit her resignation to Parliament.
