The Executive Bureau of the Bulgarian Socialist Party has resigned, but party leader Korneliya Ninova has not filed a resignation. This was what Ninova reported herself at a briefing after the "heavy loss" of the Socialists, who turned out to be the third political force in the new parliament after GERB-SDS and "There Are Such People". The reason for Ninova to stay at the leader's position was the complicated situation in the country.

Ninova also said that the BSP would not support any government proposed by GERB. According to her, a new cabinet could not be formed without the BSP, Bulgaria National Radio reporter Daniel Inkov informed.
