MPs will vote today at 2:30 pm on the second vote of no confidence in the cabinet of Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov. The motion was tabled by the MECH party with the support of Vazrazhdane and Velichie. This time the motivation for the proposed vote was the government's failure to combat corruption.
Yesterday, a day after announcing that they would no longer support the government, MPs from Ahmed Doghan's DPS-Democracy, Rights and Freedoms (DPS-DPS) group said they would vote in favour of the motion of censure.
At the same time, DPS-New Beginning leader Delyan Peevski said on the sidelines of Parliament that he had no problem with the stability of the cabinet. The We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria (PP-DB) MPs will not participate in the vote because, in their words, they are working for the country's entry into the eurozone and this is the reason not to hamper the government's work at least until the summer, although they acknowledge deficiencies in its work in terms of fighting corruption.
According to the coalition agreement signed in January, the country's governing partners are GERB-SDS, BSP-United Left and There is Such a People. In an annex to the agreement, DPS-DPS had announced its support for the government, but yesterday it withdrew its support.
