There are no prospects for forming a government with the third mandate

The first meeting organized by There is Such a People party (ITN) to seek support for the formation of a government with the third mandate ended in failure. Talks were scheduled with six MPs who left the former Velichie Group and are close to the party’s founder Ivelin Mihaylov. However, only Krasimira Katincharova attended the meeting. She asked ITN whether they were interested in supporting the idea about the construction of the Belene NPP with the help of Ukraine. There Is Such a People deemed the request unfeasible.

 Meanwhile, three of the major parliamentary formations confirmed their position that they would not support a cabinet with a third mandate. According to GERB-SDS MP Denitsa Sacheva, the talks initiated by ITN is a good groundwork for the next Parliament. We Continue the Change- Democratic Bulgaria (PP-DB) also expressed skepticism, while DPS, led by Delyan Peevski, maintained their position that the third cabinet-forming mandate should be returned immediately.
