We will not make compromises with the composition of the Council of Ministers because of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms during the rotation, Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov, who answered citizens' questions on Facebook for the seventh time, said. If we want the MRF to vote for this government, we must also go through talks with the leadership of the party, Denkov pointed out. According to him, the wider the support for the government in the parliament, the better.

Denkov also said that during the PM rotation, ministers will be changed only if both he and Mariya Gabriel agreed to it. Ministers must continue working to complete what they have started. Change of ministers will only happen in isolated cases, the Prime Minister said and added that he was not against the possibility of Minister of Finance Assen Vassilev being appointed also as second Deputy Prime Minister.

We must continue to look for more experts rather than for politicians for positions such as those of constitutional judges, the prime minister said. According to him, the candidates are expected to be politically independent, with extensive experience in the judicial sphere.
