At the consultations with the fourth parliamentary force - "Vazrazhdane", to form a cabinet, President Rumen Radev pointed out that the crises in Bulgaria require us to have a regular government that makes decisions with a long-term horizon. "The task of forming a cabinet is the most important before the National Assembly. We have a ready composition of the cabinet - if we reach a third term, we are ready to ask you for it", answered the leader of the party Kostadin Kostadinov. 

He also said that regarding the first mandate, his party can hold talks, but will defend its positions.  "We are ready to defend policies," Kostadinov added.

Regarding Vazrazhdane's request for a referendum on Bulgaria's membership in the Eurozone, the head of state stated that holding a referendum on issues settled in already ratified international treaties contradicts the Constitution.
