We all are to be winners if until 2018, when Bulgaria would hold the EU presidency, all parties focus on the national consensus, Vice President Iliyana Yotova has said. According to her, a large coalition and a very serious opposition are emerging in the National Assembly, and this was a prerequisite for a successful mandate. Speaking about the work of the presidential institution with the future cabinet, Yotova said she expected normal relationships between the institutions and mutual respect. In addition to changes to the electoral code, she said that changes were needed in many other laws, including the Bulgarians Abroad Act, the Aliens Act and the Bulgarian Citizenship Act.
