The GERB party has already made every possible compromise. Now it is the turn of other political forces to show statesmanship, because they are also responsible for what will happen in Bulgaria, Denitsa Sacheva, deputy leader of the GERB-SDS parliamentary group, told BNR. 
She stressed that if President Rumen Radev gives the mandate to the largest political force in parliament GERB-SDS to form a government, it will be Boyko Borissov who will receive it. Borissov is the one who has been nominated as prime minister by local structures, and no further talks have been held on the issue, Sacheva stressed.

"We are waiting to see if there are people in We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria (PP-DB) who want a parliamentary majority and a stable government. If they do, they will come to the negotiating table and present their conditions there, not through the media. Everything else is a political marketing strategy, and we do not want to be part of it," Sacheva insisted.
