"A final decision has not yet been made on whether the BSP will support the cabinet of "There is Such a People," MP Stoyan Mirchev has told BNR. The position of the socialists will also depend on the positions of "Democratic Bulgaria" and "Stand up, BG! We are Coming!".

Despite the overlapping positions of BSP and ITN on a number of priorities, it is yet to be seen if there are enough people in parliament who want this change, Stoyan Mirchev said. Nikolay Hadzhigenov of “Stand up, BG! We are Coming!"said that the formation had a decision when it came to "voting together". He declared that they would not leave the parliamentary hall during the voting. Democratic Bulgaria coalition has also not decided whether to vote for the ITN project, but one of its members, the Green Movement, has already announced it will vote against.

ITN's draft cabinet will be voted on in parliament on Wednesday.
