The second meeting on the formation of a government scheduled by ITN – with “Democratic Bulgaria” – was attended by the deputy chairs of the “Democratic Bulgaria” parliamentary group Tsetska Bachkova and Vladislav Panev, who is co-chair of the formation. The chairman of the parliamentary group Hristo Ivanov did not attend.
After the meeting was over Vladislav Panev stated that the “Democratic Bulgaria” parliamentary group is to discuss the nominations for a prospective cabinet at a meeting today.
“It is too early to say whether we shall support the cabinet,” Vladislav Panev said. He added that ITN had presented the priorities of their government programme – judicial reform, education and social policy – though not in any detail.
