"This parliament is exhausted. There can be no government without GERB-SDS", Movement for Rights and Freedoms Chairman Delyan Peevski said on Facebook in the wake of the news that Mariya Gabriel will withdraw her candidacy for Prime Minister. 

"Today we learned from the statement of the negotiating team of GERB-SDS that regardless of the numerous concessions made during the negotiations with We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria, PP-DB continued to make demands that are disproportionate to their weight in Parliament", Delyan Peevski noted. He emphasized that the Movement for Rights and Freedoms will not support a second cabinet-forming mandate of Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria. MRF will decline a third cabinet-forming mandate, because "we refuse to seek a majority with anti-NATO and anti-EU parties like Vazrazhdane with whom we are ideologically and morally incompatible", wrote the chairman the Movement for Rights and Freedoms.
