If "Bulgarian Rise" enters the next parliament, the important topic for the party will be the formation of a government - potentially an expert government, or a government of national unity or of national salvation, which will lead Bulgaria through the many crises. This was told to BNR by the leader of "Bulgarian Rise" Stefan Yanev, a former caretaker prime minister and minister of defence who was replaced by Prime Minister Kiril Petkov after he called the war in Ukraine a "special military operation" according to Vladimir Putin's rhetoric. 
Yanev stated that he is satisfied with the election result, as his party is new. 
"I hope the next elections will be in a year at the earliest," he also said.
