Social payments will be preserved and from July 1 there will be a 12% rise in pensions. On the air of BNR, Prime Minister Nikolai Denkov said that there would also be some additional payments that are related to new policies and yet the budget deficit will be within 3%.
Denkov also announced that there were no plans to raise taxes and that so far there were no grounds to believe that there were problems with the planning and collection of revenues.
The Bulgarian society agrees that there is a need for a new beginning in the parliament that needs to work on adopting vital legislation. This is what Antoaneta Tsoneva from DB-PP told BNT about the formation of a government between the first two political forces GERB-SDS and PP-DB. According to Tsoneva, there are six priorities that unite the majority. These include constitutional reform to change the structure of the prosecutor's office and the Supreme Judicial Council, the adoption of a budget with a 3% deficit, the preservation of social payments and no increase in taxes, as well as entry into the Eurozone and Schengen.
