The caretaker Interior Minister Boyko Rashkov will also remain in office in the regular cabinet, Kiril Petkov, nominated for prime minister by the winning party "We Continue Change" (PP), told bTV. He declined to mention other names being discussed for ministers from the four negotiating political forces (PP, BSP, "There is such a people" (IN) and "Democratic Bulgaria"). However, it is clear that each of them will have representatives in the government, as well as a deputy prime minister.
