The BSP has returned to the president the unfulfilled third and final mandate to form a government within the 47th National Assembly. The decision came on Wednesday, July 27, after the votes of There is Such a People, Vazrazhdane, GERB and the MRF voted to drop the BSP's proposed July-December 2022 Legislative Programme from the parliament's agenda.

"I have done everything in my power... From now on, the responsibility is in the hands of the president and those who did not show neither concern for the people, nor any thought for the coming months," BSP leader Kornelia Ninova wrote on Facebook.
