DPS-New Beginning MP Yordan Tsonev said in an interview with BNT that no one has requested support from their party for the election of National Assembly Speaker. Yordan Tsonev criticized We Continue the Change- Democratic Bulgaria for violating a long-standing parliamentary tradition that the Speaker of the National Assembly should come from the largest political force and added that early elections are becoming increasingly likely. 

The MP emphasized that his colleagues want a regular government, but if early elections are held, DPS - New Beginning will achieve a better result.
