Next week, the main opposition force, the Bulgarian Socialist Party - BSP, is submitting a no-confidence motion against the government in parliament because of corruption, leader Kornelia Ninova said.

She criticized the cabinet of Prime Minister Boyko Borissov, saying that cases of coronavirus infection in the country were growing proportionately to the scandals generated by the government and added the pandemic was being used for political purposes.
