The Movement for Rights and Freedoms (DPS) will first circulate a letter to other parliamentary groups asking whether they are open to supporting a second mandate to form a government.
After convening representatives of some of the party's regional structures for a meeting in Sofia, DPS leader Delyan Peevski said: "If we see from the letters that there is a chance for a majority, we will take it (the mandate - ed.) and move on".
According to Peevski, the DPS parliamentary group will decide who will take the mandate. "I can take it too, but I will not be a candidate for prime minister," said Delyan Peevski.
Peevski called on the movement's honorary leader, Ahmed Dogan, to unite the DPS, pointing out that both of them would never forgive themselves if the party split along the Dogan-Peevski axis.
"This is absurd and both of us are responsible for it not happening," Delyan Peevski stressed, saying that pressure had been put on the leaders of the regional structures not to come to today's meeting in Sofia. Peevski noted that at the Council of Chairmen, his colleagues from the regional structures had called for full unity between Dogan and himself.
