"Rumen Radev is clearly positioning himself as a potential player on the parliamentary field . I won't speculate when and how he would do it, but the easiest option is after his term expires.
This was stated in the program “Offensive with Ljubo Ognyanov” the political scientist Daniel Smilov.
On Monday, negotiations begin on the formula outlined by Boyko Borisov for a government with a mandate from the winners of GERB-SDS. The conditions that the coalition will offer to all who sit down to negotiate with them are to have an expert cabinet and a prime minister from the party. The formula is feasible and I assume that it will be implemented together with DPS and ITN. Other smaller groups may also be involved. I do not expect participation from the PP-DB side, the political scientist pointed out.
The main factor for the change of the political scene under PP-DB, according to Smilov, is the loss of votes and the reduction of support to 14%. “With this loss, they cannot be a decisive counterbalance to GERB-SDS. This option, in which they share power by exercising mutual control over each other, would be very difficult to implement”, said Daniel Smilov.
