Asen Vasilev: For the first time we saw a serious split in the DPS group  - 1

We saw for the first time a serious split in the DPS group at such an important vote. Unfortunately, Bulgaria is hostage to the hatred of two people. One with his addictions, the other with his ambitions. I personally strongly doubt that a third term is possible. Even so, he would be highly illegitimate. A third or fourth political force with 30 MPs cannot try to form a cabinet.

This is what MP from PP Asen Vassilev said after the vote of the "Zhelyazkov" cabinet.

Rosen Zhelyazkov did not collect the necessary votes to be prime minister. He was supported by 98 deputies - the entire GERB-SDS group and 30 from the DPS. 138 voted "against", as together with PP-DB, "Vazrazhdane", BSP, ITN, "Velichie" both independents, the red button pressed and 14 from DPS. Two were "abstained" - 1 from DPS and 1 from PP-DB.
