Academician Nikolai Denkov is the approved proposal for prime minister by the Executive Council of "We Continue the Change", MP Milen Mateev has told BNR. He explained that the decision had to be confirmed by the party's National Council.

"If we want to have a working minority government, we need guarantees that there really is a consensus in parliament on the priorities we have set for ourselves and that work will begin on the bills already tabled that include priority issues for us and for the country. If we do not have guarantees for this, we do not see the point of forming a government," Mateev stressed.
