The leader of the Bulgarian Socialist Party Kornelia Ninova, with a declaration on behalf of the party's parliamentary group, has called on President Rumen Radev to replace caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev. 

Ninova turned to the head of state with an appeal not to bargain for the ministers with the backstage rulers, but to replace Glavchev. This is your authority under the new Constitution, she said and added that the current caretaker prime minister is a proven GERB party candidate.

Also in a parliamentary statement, the leader of Vazrazhdane party Kostadin Kostadinov announced that the Ministry of Defense is negotiating "a list of ready-for-sale weapons without specified prices" for Ukraine. 

The list includes 57 T-72 tanks, 60 - 122-mm self-propelled howitzers, 24 -122-mm howitzers, 24 - 120-mm self-propelled mortars, 120 - 82-mm mortars and ammunition for them. He said that Vazrazhdane party will refer the issue to the relevant institutions, reports BTA.
