GERB wishes to have more ministers in the draft cabinet with the second mandate, but we have certain rules, Academician Nikolai Denkov of "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" (PP-DB) said in parliament.

"Our preference was for a completely neutral and expert format. We most likely will not participate with our political representatives in this cabinet, but we will give support", co-chairman of DB Hristo Ivanov said.

"The rotation principle is spinning in the direction of personal interest and it is unconstitutional. We will be in opposition to the coalition between the first two forces", said Stanislav Balabanov of "There is Such a People".

"PP-DB showed no desire to talk with BSP at all. They made an agreement with GERB. This is an unprincipled coalition," BSP chairman Korneliya Ninova told bTV and also announced that they would be in opposition to such a government.
