This afternoon, the Executive Bureau of the BSP will propose to the National Council of the party two options for action regarding the obtained third and last mandate for government formation within the framework of the 47th National Assembly. The options are in accordance with the Constitution and the decision will be known by Friday. This is what the chairman of the parliamentary group of "BSP for Bulgaria", Georgi Svilenski, said on Monday and refused to give more details.

At the Coalition Council held on July 24, the leaders of the BSP, "We Continue the Change" and "Democratic Bulgaria" discussed the management program and the course of the negotiations and decided to give the BSP the opportunity to decide for itself how to proceed with the mandate given to it.
