The chances of forming a cabinet are getting slimmer. It is unlikely that the BSP will be able to form a government. Prof. Vili Lilkov, a politician from the DSB and a public figure has told the BNR.

 "Most parties expect the local elections and are afraid of losing positions by then. The strength of political parties depends on their strength in local government," he commented. Therefore, according to him, early parliamentary elections can be expected both in the spring and in the autumn, together with the local elections. "The parties are weak, they have no ideas and no strong political leaders," Lilkov added.
