The Bulgarian Socialist Party and the Alternative for Bulgarian Revival party reacted sharply to President Plevneliev’s decision to refrain from appointing his own caretaker cabinet. According to Valeri Zhablyanov from BSP, President Plevneliev has deepened the crisis and has intentionally created an uncontrollable situation before President-elect Rumen Radev assumes offices. The Chairman of ABV Georgi Parvanov said that President Plevneliev’s refusal to form an interim government was a violation of the Bulgarian Constitution. We hail President Plevneliev’s decision to refrain from forming his own caretaker cabinet, the Chairman of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms Mustafa Karadayi said. In his view, an appointment of a cabinet that will function for two weeks only would be a frivolous act. I would like to congratulate President Plevneliev for his decision. His behavior is quite normal and natural, the Co-chairman of the Patriotic Front Valeri Simeonov said.
