The Bulgarian National Assembly rejected the nomination of Prof. Nikolay Gabrovski for prime minister of the country with 113 votes “for” and 125 “against”.
The support for the nomination of Prof. Gabroski for prime minister on the first mandate of GERB-SDS, came from GERB-SDS, the Movement for Rights and Freedoms and Bulgarian Rise but the votes of these parties did not suffice. According to the rules of organization and procedure of the National Assembly, when a premier-designate is not approved by parliament, then the next two votes – for structure and composition of the cabinet – do not take place.
Under the constitution, the president must now hand the second mandate for forming a government to the second biggest parliamentary group – that of We Continue the Change party. If a cabinet is not formed after the third government-forming mandate is handed over, the National Assembly is dissolved and new elections for parliament scheduled.
