PM Borissov: Coalition stays and “no-one option” is counted only in majority elections, reads the head title of 24 Hours. Bulgarians living in EU countries will vote without restrictions, and votes by selecting "I do not support anyone," will not be subtracted from the total number of ballots, the paper writes. There would have been a risk for the government if we had not reached an agreement about election rules, Borissov added, quoted by the newspaper. We agreed on everything, he said and added there were no plans for changes in the coalition.
Standard also used words of the Bulgarian Prime Minister for its main article. "I would not throw the country into chaos," the PM was quoted saying. The partners in government and the party that supports it - the Patriotic Front, agreed that limits to the number of polling stations in EU countries will be lifted, the newspaper writes.
Leading Bulgarian lawyers joined the appeal of European academic legal community to the European Commission and the European Parliament not to sign transatlantic trade agreements with the US and Canada. This is what the Zemya newspaper informs, adding that this was related to parallel mechanisms, used by investors to sue countries.

Achieving a level of 40% of top and middle management positions of companies being occupied by women is one of the objectives that the government plans to recommend to companies in this country, Sega writes.
