All parties in the coalition "We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria" have decided not to support a government with a mandate or participation of GERB, Asen Vassilev, co-chairman of We Continue the Change, said at a press conference.

Vassilev emphasized that in the Sunday elections there were 5 times more invalid ballots, over 45,000 compared to 9,000 in the previous elections. He expressed dissatisfaction that in 17% of the polling stations there was a discrepancy between the votes registered by the machine and those recorded in the protocols. Vassilev added that there were corrected protocols and a systemic problem with the conducting and reporting of the elections.

"Our decision not to support GERD is due to differences in values. The state budget must happen now, no one can wait", said the co-chairman of We Continue the Change Kiril Petkov.

The coalition leaders did not want to answer journalistic questions.
