I do not know if the candidate for caretaker prime minister wanted meetings and talks with persons from GERB about their appointment as ministers, the leader of GERB Boyko Borissov said on the sidelines of the parliament. 

"The president is a responsible person and will not throw the country into a constitutional crisis. It is his choice and we accept it. We have heard many things other than the truth in recent days. We heard all kinds of bad things about us from We Continue the Change (PP) and then they said that after the election we would talk again. If they keep going like this, we won't talk. I want to say that even if we had 150 MPs together with DPS after the elections, there would be no government with only these two parties," Borissov said.
