Talks are underway between GERB-SDS and "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" (PP-DB), the candidate for prime minister from GERB, Mariya Gabriel, told BNT. She refused to give more information and pointed out that nothing has been agreed until a final agreement is reached. 

"Let me not set a deadline this time, but I think it is up to each of us not to keep the Bulgarian citizens in the dark. We must do everything possible so that Bulgaria does not end up in new elections. We were in this situation 9 months ago. Then, in the name of the national interest, we declared that we want to give the country stability,” Gabriel added. She did not confirm, but did not deny the information that there was a meeting between the leader of GERB, Boyko Borisov and the co-chairman of "PP" and finance minister Assen Vassilev. Gabriel said that whether Vassilev will be part of a future cabinet is part of the negotiations.
