BSP negotiates with There is Such a People for a new cabinet

The Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) is continuing negotiations on forming a government and today will meet with There is Such a People - the party that left the governing coalition and caused the current political crisis. 

At yesterday's consultation, We Continue the Change party set two conditions to give its support to a cabinet with a third exploratory mandate. The first is for the anti-corruption law to be adopted and the second is for the outgoing interior minister Boyko Rashkov to head the Anti-Corruption Commission. 
Negotiations with Democratic Bulgaria are due tomorrow. If the four parties agree, they will reach a parliamentary majority of 127 votes against the 121 needed.
