Bulgaria’s President Rumen Radev presented his fourth caretaker government, which takes power before the snap parliamentary elections on October 2.  “Security is the key challenge facing the caretaker cabinet. Tension in the Balkans is on the rise again. A war is raging near Bulgaria and its impact is felt directly in this country. Your top priority is to prevent the country's involvement in the military conflict”. President Radev noted.

 According to the country’s head of state, Bulgaria’s accession to the Schengen Area, the Recovery and Resilience Plan, security of energy supplies, energy prices, getting a grip on food prices, are among the priorities of the new interim government.

“The caretaker cabinet is not team B in the country’s governance. The 100th government will not be given 100 days of tolerance. Accountability and people's trust will keep me from losing balance. I am not looking for a loophole.”, the country’s new interim Premier Galab Donev said. “I expect from my colleagues to be fully dedicated to their job- to organize and hold fair elections, restore confidence between institutions, find a way out of all inherited crises, reduce political tensions and continue to work on the Recovery and Resilience Plan”, Premier Galab Donev went on to say.
