The parliamentary group of Democratic Bulgaria has offered GERB-SDS and "BSP-United Left" to vote "for" the candidacy of Silvi Kirilov from ITN for the post of Speaker of the 51st National Assembly. Yordan Ivanov, MP from "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria" commented to journalists that this proposal was rejected before the seventh attempt of the MPs to elect a chairman.

The submitted candidacies were again four and at the insistence of Atanas Zafirov from the BSP, the chairing Silvi Kirilov announced a 30-minute break and the leaders of the parliamentary groups withdrew for a meeting. No solution was reached and the meeting continued with mutual accusations between ITN, Democratic Bulgaria, Vazrazhdane and the BSP-United Left.

Finally, the MPs went into recess again.
