BSP leader Korneliya Ninova has criticized President Rumen Radev for linking the second mandate to form a government to a budget update. At the same time, she also criticized MPs saying they should have already created the parliamentary committees and discussed the update in them.

Asked by BNT whether her party would propose the current caretaker ministers to form a regular cabinet if the third mandate was given to the BSP, Ninova said the president did not approve of the idea. "I would initiate talks with President Rumen Radev on whether he agrees that the caretaker ministers take the positions in a regular cabinet, but if he disagreed again, we would look for other options," the BSP leader added.
