After the Parliament approved the refusal of GERB-SDS Prime Minister-designate Mariya Gabriel to form a cabinet with the first cabinet-forming mandate, today President Rumen Radev will hand a mandate to the second largest parliamentary force – We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria. Its candidate for Prime Minister will have one week to propose to the President the composition and structure of a cabinet or to return the mandate unfulfilled.

GERB-SDS already stated that they will not participate in attempts to form a government with the second and third mandates. The other parliamentary forces – the Movement for Rights and Freedoms, the Bulgarian Socialist Party, Vazrazhdane and There is Such a People - saw the only way out of the situation in early parliamentary elections.
