The Vazrazhdane parliamentary party will not support a government behind which MRF stands, even without Delyan Peevski. This was stated by party chairman Kostadin Kostadinov during a meeting with "There is Such a People" (ITN) in search of support for the third cabinet-forming mandate.
"Of course, Peevski is a "tumor" that must be cut out of Bulgarian politics. However, this does not change the genesis of Peevski, because it is obvious that the breeding ground for him is still there, and if today Peevski is removed, tomorrow another Peevski will appear who will again control the judiciary, again control the financial flows through hoops of companies," Kostadinov said. 

Still, the negotiators have found common priorities, such as energy, on which they want to renegotiate the green deal, and easing the conditions for holding a referendum in the country and tackling the demographic crisis.

Yesterday, the ITN boasted that it had managed to garner 66 votes in the 240-member parliament in support.
