A day after the Bulgarian National Assembly accepted the resignation of the government, President Rosen Plevneliev launched consultations with political forces, represented in parliament, in order to prevent the political crisis from turning into a parliamentary one. The head of state first met with the ruling GERB Party. After the end of the meeting party leader Boyko Borissov confirmed that he did not see a way for forming a new government in the current parliament. There will be consultations of the President with the other seven parliamentary parties: BSP, MRF, Reformist Bloc, Patriotic Front, Bulgarian Democratic Centre, ABV and Ataka.
