A large left-wing coalition will be formed for the elections on July 11th. The news was reported at a press conference by BSP leader Korneliya Ninova. After the talks, reliable partners of the BSP will be the ABV, "Movement 21" with leader Tatiana Doncheva and "Normal Bulgaria" of Georgi Kadiev. The initiative belongs to BSP leader Ninova.

"There will be a big left-wing coalition. It is not easy, but it is necessary for Bulgaria, especially in the conditions of the current socio-economic crisis and after GERB’s 10 year-long rule," Ninova said. She expressed confidence that the new format would lead to a better result for left-wing parties.

In the elections for the 45th National Assembly, despite preliminary forecasts for second place, the BSP for Bulgaria placed third.
