Political Developments Unfold in Bulgarian Government

Caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev indicated that the old cabinet ministers would continue their duties until the president issued a decree, as he commented while leaving the presidency. Following a meeting with President Rumen Radev, Glavchev stated that he had not proposed anything yet and that communication with the president was ongoing without any new developments to share. This exchange of information hinted at an unfolding political situation within the Bulgarian government.

In response to the evolving political landscape, MP and GERB deputy chair Daniel Mitov made a strategic decision in parliament. Mitov expressed his understanding of the situation, stating that he did not want to become a point of division that could hinder the functioning of institutions and create societal discord. Consequently, Mitov withdrew his candidacy for the foreign minister post in the caretaker government, thanking both caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev for his trust and GERB leader Boyko Borissov for considering him for a potential role at the Foreign Ministry with understanding. These developments demonstrate a complex interplay of political maneuvering and decision-making within the Bulgarian political sphere.
