MRF's Delyan Peevski warns PP-DB not to ruin the Euro-Atlantic majority in parliament

The Bulgarian Parliament failed to vote today on the second vote of no confidence in the government. After the failed vote, the chairman of the PG of the MRF Delyan Peevski, who is included in the American Magnitsky sanctions list, issued a warning to the PP-DB: 
"I hope that our colleagues will read the signs tonight and do not destroy the Euro-Atlantic parliamentary majority. Either there will be a Euro-Atlantic parliamentary majority or there will be a pro-Putin majority that governs Bulgaria. We will not participate in it. As we have seen, colleagues from GERB will not participate either. So - this is the evening of the signs".
The final vote of the no confidence vote will take place on November 17. Amid preliminary expectations that the vote would fail, it could not be voted on in parliament today due to a lack of quorum. This situation was reached after the representatives of GERB and MRF left the plenary hall immediately before the vote. The reason – the proposal of GERB, rejected by the parliament, within a three-day period to drop the derogation for the import of Russian oil in Bulgaria.
