On January 12, President Rumen Radev welcomes successively at Dondukov 2 parliamentary-represented parties for consultations on the organization of the parliamentary elections. So far President Radev has talked with non-parliamentary formations, with the Central Election Commission - CEC, with the public council of the commission, with health experts, with representatives of the Bulgarian communities abroad, BGNES recalls.

As soon as there is an invitation from the President, my colleagues and I will go to the consultations, Deputy Prime Minister Tomislav Donchev has told bTV. He pointed out that GERB had no problem with any date for the elections. It is not the government but the CEC who are in charge of the election process, the deputy prime minister added.
