At the moment, the best thing for Bulgaria is a coalition between the two largest parliamentary forces - GERB-SDS and We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria. This is what the leader of GERB, Boyko Borissov, said after the consultations with President Rumen Radev.

According to Borissov, a regular government cannot be formed without the first political force. "The pre-election talks are over. Now those who care about Bulgaria should make compromises. Schengen, the Eurozone and the Recovery and Resilience Plan cannot happen without a regular government." Boyko Borissov said and added that he himself would not be nominated for prime minister.
