The MECH party has its own parliamentary group again. It was restored after MPs adopted the draft resolution of ITN with 170 votes “for”, 1 “against”, and two abstained.

Earlier today, two new MECH MPs took the oath in the National Assembly. These are Ivan Ivanov and Plamen Petkov.

On March 21, the Speaker of the National Assembly, Natalia Kiselova, announced that the MECH group was ceasing to exist, as it did not have 10 MPs, as required by the rules of the parliament.
