Members of the caretaker government will be sworn in today at an extraordinary sitting of Bulgaria's National Assembly. Because of the changes in the Constitution, for the first time a caretaker cabinet will be sworn in before the MPs, although it is appointed by presidential decree.

"On Tuesday morning I will issue three decrees - on the caretaker government, on European elections and on parliamentary elections on June 9 - two in one," President Rumen Radev said when presenting the cabinet's composition.

According to the draft of the prime minister-designate Dimitar Glavchev, four ministers from the previous government, including the interior minister Kalin Stoyanov, will keep their posts. 

However, "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" (PP-DB) does not agree that the same minister should remain at the head of the Interior Ministry and insists that the president should not sign the decree.
