A meeting between the leaders of GERB-SDS and PP-DB took place in the parliament. The talks between the candidate for prime minister from GERB Mariya Gabriel, the leader of GERB Boyko Borisov and the representatives of SDS, PP and DB lasted two hours. After the end of the meeting, however, the participants refused any comment to the media. The meeting was held against the background of the already received support from MRF and ITN for Mariya Gabriel's cabinet of experts.

The total number of deputies from GERB-SDS, MRF and ITN in the National Assembly is 116, which is 5 votes less than the required majority in the 240-member parliament.
