The coalition We Continue the Change/Democratic Bulgaria will not support a government on the mandate of GERB/SDS with prime minister - European commissioner Mariya Gabriel. This decision was reached by the coalition after long hours of grueling debate within the governing bodies of their joint coalition.

“We are not going to support the first mandate, we are starting work on the second mandate which is the only alternative to a 6th general election (in the space of two years – editorial note),” Kiril Petkov, co-chair of We Continue the Change told reporters. 

“We shall begin consultations with all political forces represented in parliament whether they are willing to support concrete amendments to the Constitution regarding the Supreme Judicial Council and the prosecutor’s office,” said on his part Hristo Ivanov, co-chair of Democratic Bulgaria.
