Caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev has expressed hope that the National Assembly will elect a regular government today and that it will have a long and successful mandate.

“There are no dysfunctional systems, we are handing it over after a job well done,” the Prime Minister said in response to a journalist’s question about the state he is leaving the country to the next cabinet. According to him, there are no particular risks facing the future regular government.

There are several topics that need to be “further specified as to how the new cabinet will act,” according to Dimitar Glavchev. They are of geopolitical importance – the war in Ukraine and the eurozone.

“The fact that three caretaker ministers remain in the eventual regular cabinet is indicative of their personal work, but also of that of the caretaker cabinet,” the Prime Minister added. After the handover of power, he will return to work at the Bulgarian National Audit Office.
