ITN and BSP for Bulgaria to continue talks on forming a cabinet

"There is Such a People" has held consultations over forming a government with the parliamentary group of "BSP for Bulgaria". The Socialists described the talks as a good first step towards a dialogue aimed at finding an agreement on forming a government.

According to leader Korneliya Ninova, the meeting shed light on topics and policies on which the two political forces have overlapping positions. However some differences remained.
