The probability of forming a government is 50%. I said this before the New Year and I still think so today, as the percentages have not increased. This was what the Speaker of the Parliament, Natalia Kiselova, told bTV. 

At the moment, we have 8 parliamentary groups and the talks between them are becoming more complicated. Let us be realistic about the formation of a government, Kiselova urged. “It is much more correct to have a regular government. The portfolios of the possible BSP ministers have been the subject of negotiations. ITN will receive a proposal for one deputy prime minister and 4 ministers,” Kiselova added. She confirmed that GERB has nominated Rosen Zhelyazkov for prime minister and added: “Our representatives in the talks have categorically rejected the possibility of Mr. Boyko Borisov being a candidate for prime minister.”
