Unprecedented fragmentation among nine parties in the National Assembly. The number of parties in the next parliament will be a key factor in the formation of a government, according to sociologist Andrey Raichev, who made an in-depth analysis of the political situation after the first exit polls from the early parliamentary elections, BTV reported.
"The most important fact is not being paid attention to, and that is how many parties enter the parliament," said Raichev.
According to the sociologist, there are three possible scenarios for the composition of the 51st National Assembly - with nine, eight or seven political formations. He emphasized that the entry of nine parties would be unprecedented in Bulgarian parliamentary history and would lead to serious fragmentation, Dunav Most reported.
Raichev outlined a potential coalition between GERB and PP-DB, mentioning the possibility of including a third political entity, referring to Slavi Trifonov as a likely participant.
The sociologist called to stop focusing on the opposition Peevski - Dogan. He noted the expectations for additional votes from Turkey and Peevski's ambition to maximize the election result.
"We won't know the exact figures after two or three hours, some until 12:00,'' commented Raichev regarding the results of the two DPS formations.
Regarding the BSP, the sociologist noted that the party has overcome its critical period.
