“Stand Up, BG! We Are Coming!” is not going to support a government with the mandate of the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) at all costs, announced its parliamentary group leader Maya Manolova after consultations with the BSP on the formation of a cabinet with the third exploratory mandate. The other “Stand Up, BG! We Are Coming!” leader Nikolay Hadjigenov added that there is no way such a government can be supported because “it will be supported by GERB and will be at the mercy of GERB”. However, the formation is willing to give its votes for the update of the state budget so that the people will not be left in the lurch during the coming crises. BSP’s leader Korneliya Ninova commented that there is a match in their policies, and also that the BSP will not return the mandate until people’s problems are solved.
