This coalition, which was outlined by Mr. Boyko Borisov was the only realistic option after the elections. Being prime minister was mentioned during the election campaign. Reflect on an opportunity.
Being a prime minister is the beginning of a negotiating position, because on one side we have an equidistant prime minister proposed. It is not unimportant who will be the chairman of the National Assembly, and this will be a plot that will be decided on Wednesday.
This was stated by the political scientist Dimitar Ganev in the show "Face to Face" on bTV.
Political degradation continues. The way they talk shows that both forming a coalition and going to new elections do not really matter. Now they continue as if they were in an election campaign again, said Ivan Sotirov from "Blue Bulgaria".
For us, the formula is as far away as possible from the prime minister and expert cabinet. GERD has no intention of offering such a formula. It can be seen that Borisov is in isolation, Simov pointed out.
It is important who is the president of the National Assembly, because if there are early parliamentary elections, he enters as part of the home book. The Speaker of the National Assembly is always elected by a potential majority that will appoint a government. I personally doubt that by Wednesday the 4 formations will be ready to present a common application. One of the decisions was made today – the oldest member of parliament to remain chairman. This will be until a majority is formed. If we don't have a president, we don't have a functioning National Assembly, parliamentary groups cannot be formed, if we don't have them, a mandate from the president to form a cabinet cannot be handed over, that is, we are in a dead end, Ganev explained.
No majority on the horizon. With GERB and New Beginning there are 99 people's representatives, plus the support of the BSP, they become 119 – that is, there is no majority. The support of ITN, which has a clear position, will also be needed, the political scientist calculated.
„There are many principles that the BSP will not violate. Where does Borisov's fixation with PP-DB come from? If he now wants a coalition with them, why did he ruin it 4 months ago? What has changed? We are hostage to the love dance between GERB and PP-DB, and it is a game with a zero result, so far it has not produced anything of quality, Simov stressed.
Ivan Sotirov added that it would be absurd with parties like “Revival” to form a coalition. It is an anti-national party that serves foreign interests of a country that has declared Bulgaria an enemy. We do not have management programs that have been removed, but who has what positions in the regulators and the prosecutor's office, instead of having reform ideas.
It is important in the name of what a coalition will be made. We have not promised on-call support. The sanitary cordon declaration is sent to us by those who until 4 months ago used Peevski as a rubber stamp. There must be morality in politics, said Alexander Simov from BSP.
