“If the third mandate for the formation of a government is handed to There Is Such a People (ITN), it would be acting responsibly to try,” MP from There Is Such a People Iva Miteva said for the BNR.

The second biggest party in parliament, GERB declared it would hand back the mandate. According to Iva Miteva, the doors in front of the biggest political party We Continue the Change are not closed, even though it was precisely its coalition partner ITN that withdrew from the cabinet and later voted for its resignation.

She added that the decision whether her party would support another We Continue the Change cabinet depended on who will be part of it and who the prime minister will be. “Early elections are the worst case scenario,” Iva Miteva said, adding that the more often elections are held, the lower the voter turnout.
