We are not planning to delay the forthcoming Parliamentary elections due to the coronavirus epidemic, Bulgaria’s Deputy Premier Tomislav Donchev said for BTV. “It is a completely different question how the election process should be organized, in order to create less risks to the population”, Tomislav Donchev commented.
“The government is not afraid to impose temporary lockdown”, Deputy Premier Donchev said further and assured that the authorities are to adopt stricter measures if necessary.
