In a statement on behalf of "We Continue the Change – Democratic Bulgaria", MP Martin Dimitrov stated that the ''first action of the new government is to sabotage Bulgaria's entry into the Eurozone''. "Bulgaria meets all the criteria for joining the Eurozone after consultations with the European Commission and the European Central Bank. Instead, the government decided to blow smoke about a huge deficit as a desperate attempt to shift the responsibility onto someone else", said Martin Dimitrov.

"Bulgaria will join the Eurozone. This is a political decision, and if that doesn't happen, we have no place in the coalition", GERB leader Boyko Borissov told journalists in Parliament. He reminded that GERB was the party that brought Bulgaria into the European Banking Union.
