Earlier this month, Foreign Minister Mariya Gabriel failed to form a government following the resignation of Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov of the PP on March 5. Denkov stepped down to allow the GERB to lead the government for nine months, as agreed after last year’s elections. He also rejected Radev’s invitation to try to form a government.
In elections last April, GERB came first, winning 69 seats in the 240-seat parliament. The bloc led by PP won 64 seats. Under the constitution, the Bulgarian parliament does not have to dissolve prior to snap elections.
