Vice President Iliana Iotova has expressed the hope that a strong political government will be formed after the elections.

"I think that my vote reduces the trade of buying votes," she said after voting with a machine for a new parliament. However, the vice president was not optimistic that we would find out who all the arrested people were buying votes for.

According to Iliana Iotova, what kind of government will we have after the elections, whether it will consist of several coalitions will be decided by the parties that will enter the parliament. She added that there is an opportunity for negotiations, a clearly defined program and, above all, strong leaders.

As for the "equally distant formula" for a new cabinet, the vice president said that this was more of an option where politicians would want to mislead citizens as to why they don't want to enter into a real coalition and govern.
