We all have to draw a conclusion from this and take measures," BSP leader Korneliya Ninova, whose party ranks fifth in the new Bulgarian parliament, told journalists. She thanked the voters who exercised their right to vote.
BSP, like the other participants in the elections, declined to comment before the final results.
