Sofia (Eurotoday) – Bulgaria’s largest parliamentary group candidate for prime minister, Rosen Zhelyazkov, accepted the president’s invitation to form a government.
GERB-SDS candidate Rosen Zhelyazkov presented President Rumen Radev with a ready-made cabinet, Reuters reported.
“Our consultations were sought at pursuing a broader consensus,”
Zhelyazkov stated after Radev gave him the mandate at a ceremony at the presidency.
“We made great steps, sometimes in the late hours of the day, to achieve the necessary compromises, the necessary agreement,”
Radev expressed he would order parliament to vote on the offered government.
What difficulties has GERB faced in forming a coalition government?
The last election that took place in Bulgaria was on 27 October 2024. It was a snap parliamentary election that took place in the country for the seventh time in three years due to the political situation remaining unstable; besides, parties failed to build a stable government after the election. After the political impasse following the elections on October 27, 2024, much has happened in Bulgaria.
The election saw a divided parliament, where GERB, the center-right party, gained the majority of the votes but not the clear majority required for a simple win. Boyko Borissov, who leads GERB, at first refused to be prime minister and said he didn’t want
“to take care of this broken country.”
Despite Borissov’s initial reluctance to pursue the position of prime minister, GERB still presented a cabinet government. So far, the coalition negotiations are marred with issues, notably from the European party.
