After the elections, GERB will not negotiate for a new government with the co-chairmen of "We Continue the Change" Kiril Petkov and Asen Vassilev, as well as with the former prime minister Nikolay Denkov, but would accept some of the parties in the PP-DB coalition as future partners. This was what party leader Boyko Borissov told journalists. According to him, only "Democratic Bulgaria" behaves reasonably.

"Of course, I will work with PP and DB, but not according to theirs, but with the power of GERB in governance - with our prime ministers, with our ministers." Boyko Borisov said.

DPS, according to the leader of GERB, is the formation which one can have normal talks with. He did not give a definitive answer to the question of whether his party was ready to form an independent government after the early vote.
