Vice President Iliana Iotova expressed hope that Goritsa Kozhareva, nominated for caretaker Prime Minister, would be able to present a composition of the government. According to her, other claims and suggestions were disinformation.

When asked what would happen if Goritsa Kozhareva returned the mandate unfulfilled, Iliana Iotova replied that in such a case the president would have to make a new nomination. According to the changes in the Constitution, the head of state must choose the caretaker prime minister from several people in high government positions.

As for Rumen Radev's decree promulgating the changes to the School and Preschool Education Act, the vice-president said she did not see discrimination in the texts prohibiting the propaganda of non-traditional sexual orientation in schools.

"We definitely cannot talk about taking away rights and it is high time that we stopped looking at things only in black and white", Iliana Iotova said. Last night she took part in the national commemorative gathering in the Petrova Niva area, dedicated to the 121st anniversary of the Ilinden-Preobrazhenie Uprising.
