GERB said that the PP-DB's decision to vote today on the resignation of Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov in the absence of the rotating prime ministerial candidate, Mariya Gabriel, who is in Bucharest for the EPP congress, was a rash decision.

According to the deputy leader of the GERB-SDS parliamentary group, Temenuzhka Petkova, this is an indication of the PP-DB's unwillingness to negotiate and even shows its plans for early elections. Petkova, a member of the negotiating team appointed by GERB leader Boyko Borissov, said that the PP-DB had not yet been approached for talks. GERB deputy leader Tomislav Donchev, on the other hand, saw the PP-DB's actions as an attempt to avoid the results of its own work.
