“No decision or policy by the government of Kiril Petkov will be supported by GERB party,” GERB leader and former PM Boyko Borissov stated in Dobrich. According to him, the differences over North Macedonia between PM Kiril Petkov and Foreign Minister Teodora Genchovska alone are sufficient reason for the government’s resignation.

“That, in any other situation, would cause the government to fall,” Borissov stated, commenting on a statement made by Minister Genchovska yesterday, that there were serious differences with the prime minister’s foreign policy team on the question of when Bulgaria can lift its veto on North Macedonia’s European membership negotiations. In response to Teodora Genchovska words, Prime Minister Kiril Petkov stated that any decision on the matter would be taken by the National Assembly.
