In an interview for the Bulgarian National Radio Deputy Prime Minister Tomislav Donchev said that the resignation of the government was not just a decision made solely by Prime Minister Borissov, but was discussed by ministers in the government. According to Donchev, the policy of the government is not seen by people as completely correct and this is part of the reason for failure at presidential elections. Other reasons include the late GERB nomination for a new head of state and the involvement of Commissioner Kristalina Georgieva in the race for the United Nations top position. The Deputy PM expects that early parliamentary elections in Bulgaria will be held in late March or early April.
