Stanishev Government

In the project-government that "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" (WCC-DB) would propose with the second term, Kiril Petkov (initially named as deputy prime minister with the Schengen and Eurozone portfolio) drops out, but Asen Vassilev remains the proposed minister of finance.

President Rumen Radev commented that BSP will do everything possible to fulfill the third mandate. The head of state said he was not guided by the Nexo scandal in choosing which party to give the last chance to form a cabinet because he had already made up his mind.

President Rumen Radev handed over the third exploratory mandate for forming a government to the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP). The chairman of the parliamentary group of the Left, Kornelia Ninova, took the folder.

At 5:00 p.m., President Rumen Radev will receive the candidate for Prime Minister, nominated by the largest parliamentary group in the 47th National Assembly, Asen Vassilev, to whom, according to the constitutional procedure, he handed over the first exploratory mandate to form a government within the current parliament.

Bulgaria's prime ministerial candidate, 41-year-old Kiril Petkov, whose new anti-corruption party won the general election last month, said he hoped to take office on Monday as leader of a four-party coalition, ending months of political stalemate in the poorest EU country, AFP reports.
