After talks with President Rumen Radev, chair of the Parliamentary Group of "BSP for Bulgaria" and party leader Kornelia Ninova told journalists that there was a change in the position of the President and the Cabinet regarding the minimum wage. According to Ninova, the President said that the cabinet would consider raising the minimum wage to BGN 850.

Ninova also commented that there were topics on which she and the president had different positions, such as the order for new fighter jets for the army. According to her, Bulgaria currently needs support for the economy and a social package for vulnerable groups. On the issue related to the decision to export arms to Ukraine, the BSP and the head of state expressed the position that this could be dangerous for Bulgaria and could involve the country in the conflict.
