From his Facebook profile, the co-chairman of "We Continue the Change" Kiril Petkov announced that the PP-DB coalition will not negotiate with "Vazrazhdane" to form a cabinet. He defined as "media suggestions" the claims that such talks are possible.

Speculations about possible negotiations between the two formations began after an interview with Kiril Petkov, in which he stated that negotiations could be held when "Vazrazhdane" apologized for the insults and proved that it is not pro-Russian. The MP from "Vazrazhdane" Tsoncho Ganev told BNT that there were unofficial talks with PP-DB.

According to Kiril Petkov, there are two potential majorities in the current parliament - GERB and DPS; "Vazrazhdane", BSP, "Velichie", ITN, but PP-DB cannot be part of them, because it is an anti-corruption and pro-European coalition.
