Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev will dissolve this country’s National Assembly and appoint a new caretaker cabinet on Thursday, September 16, the President’s Press Secretariat has announced.

This means that the plenary sitting scheduled for September 15 will be the last sitting of the 46th National Assembly. The early Parliamentary elections will be held on November 14, simultaneously with the first round of the Presidential elections.

Bulgaria will hold new snap general elections, because the political parties represented at the National Assembly failed to form a regular government with three government-forming mandates.
