Democrats for a Strong Bulgaria: PP-DB should ask for third mandate and nominate a technocratic cabinet

The Democrats for a Strong Bulgaria (DSB) party is proposing to its partners in the We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria (PP-DB) coalition that they seek a third exploratory mandate and try to form a technocratic cabinet that would "guarantee the European democratic, legal and anti-corruption order and the preservation of the parliamentary republic". This, according to the DSB, is the way out of the political crisis, says the party's resolution, following a decision by their Executive Council.

GERB's decision to botch the rotation of power in the regular government in order to trigger another snap election, and its failure to form a government with the first mandate, are threats to the democratic system of government, the DSB's Executive Council said.

The DSB defined the PP-DB as a natural alliance of people sharing common values, the only alternative to the corrupt status quo and the main guarantor for defending the European path and the country's membership of NATO.
