Boyko Borissov

Former Prime Minister and current leader of the GERB party, Boyko Borissov, welcomed Belarusian opposition figure Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya at the party's headquarters. Tsikhanouskaya, known for her staunch opposition to both the war in Ukraine and the regime in Belarus, found an ally in Borissov, who emphasized GERB's unwavering support for Ukraine and its military efforts.

GERB-SDS will not support the change of the national holiday from March 3 to May 24. This was stated by the leader of the party Boyko Borissov, according to whom "holidays in Bulgaria should not be fought over".

"March 3, May 24, the Unification are extremely bright holidays to become a place for argument, discord or politics," Borissov also said.

Tomorrow GERB-SDS will most likely propose Mariya Gabriel as prime minister, bTV reported.

A cabinet proposed by "We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria", with the participation of Kiril Petkov, Asen Vassilev and Atanas Atanasov, is unacceptable for GERB. This was announced by the leader of the party, Boyko Borissov.

According to him, the leaked information about their participation in a second-term government is an attempt to test the public reaction.
