ITN postponed the sixth vote of no confidence with a 30-minute break. The request was made by Pavela Mitova.
The Speaker of the Parliament Raya Nazaryan accepted the request and declared a break.
The vote of no confidence was submitted by the PP-DB after the large protest against the government on December 1 in Sofia. The vote is on the topic of failure in the government's economic policy, supported by the signatures of the APS and MECH.
The submitters motivated the vote with the thesis that „the economy in the state with a capital „E“ is ineffective, corrupt, under constant administrative harassment, subordinate to behind-the-scenes interests“.
During the protests on Wednesday, the PP-DB repeatedly called on the "There is such a people" group to leave power and vote for the government's resignation.
So far, the "Zhelyazkov" cabinet has survived five votes of no confidence. The last one was in mid-September, when the government received support from 133 deputies from GERB-SDF, DPS-New Beginning, BSP and ITN.
The previous votes of no confidence in the government, all unsuccessful, were due to failures in environmental policy, failures in foreign policy, the fight against corruption and fiscal policy.
