GERB leader Boyko Borissov insists on the replacement of Defense Minister Todor Tagarev, regardless of the assessment he will receive from rotating prime ministers Nikolai Denkov and Mariya Gabriel.

Borissov rejected the invitation of co-chairman of "We Continue the Change" (PP) Kiril Petkov for immediate start of negotiations on the work of the cabinet after the rotation of the prime ministers. "I will propose a negotiating team on the coalition agreement. It will include Raya Nazaryan, Dеnitsa Sacheva, Temenuzka Petkova and other people who can ‘talk calmly’. Across the EU, there are majorities of parties that don’t like each other but must govern together. In the coalition agreement, we will offer equality in the governance of the state and in bearing responsibility. According to me, Kiril Petkov is the real prime minister of this government," Borissov added.
