Bulgaria on the eve of early parliamentary elections

According to Webangah News quoted by Tasnim News agency, quoted by “Spiegel” weekly, in Bulgaria , the Populist Party (ITN) rejected attempts to form a new government, paving the way for early elections. The move came after the center-right Gareb party and its former coalition partner We Continue to Change announced that they would not be able to form a new government. In the parliament of Bulgaria, in a meeting with Ruben Radov, the president of this country said: Elections are the highest form of democracy. Radov also said that the interim government should form a cabinet that will carry out the task of organizing early parliamentary elections.

Bulgaria is the poorest member of the European Union and one of its most corrupt countries. Since anti-corruption protests in 2020, the country has been affected by political instability. The country has been run by interim governments until elections in April 2023.

Earlier this month, Foreign Minister Maria Gabriel of the center-right Gareb party resigned after the resignation of Prime Minister Nikolay Dankov of the pro-Western Our Movement. We keep changing, failed to form a new coalition government on March 5.

Denkov resigned to allow Greb to lead the government for nine months, as agreed after last year’s election. On Wednesday, Gerb rejected Radef’s invitation to form a government.

Greb won 69 seats in the parliament with 240 seats in last April’s elections. The bloc under the leadership of “We continue to change” won 64 seats. According to the constitution, parliament should not be dissolved before early elections.
