Patriotic Front (PF)

Patriotic Front (PF) co-leader Krasimir Karakachanov has downplayed any division existing between the two main parties within the nationalist alliance or among other of its parties.

In an interview with public broadcaster BNT, Karakachanov has blamed "hybrid warfare" for the reports he is increasingly at odds with Valeri Simeonov, the chairman of NFSB party and also PF co-leader.

Bulgaria's biggest party GERB may join a new government if one is formed within the current legislature, but will not head it, GERB Deputy Chairman Tsvetan Tsvetanov has said.

Patriotic Front (PF) coalition co-head Valeri Simeonov has set three conditions to support a new Bulgarian government formed under the current legislature.

Right-wing Reformist Bloc coalition has said it will hand back the mandate to the Bulgarian President next week, without trying to form a new government.

Later staements from members of the bloc, however, have cast a shadow of doubt on whether this position will change.

The nationalist Patriotic Front (PF) coalition has pledged to back a cabinet with the mandate of the Reformist Bloc (RB), the junior partner in the outgoing Bulgarian government.

The RB is due to be handed out a mandate next Monday. If it fails to form a new government and returns the mandate to the President, the county will have an interim cabinet, sliding toward early elections.

The party of outgoing Prime Minister Boyko Borisov has made a U-turn in its attitude to a possible new cabinet led by the nationalist Patriotic Front (PF) coalition.

GERB will not back any new government within the current legislature, Tsvetan Tsvetanov, who heads the conservative party's faction in Parliament, has explained.

There is still hope to create a new government within the current legislature, Bulgarian President Rosen Plevneliev has said.

Bulgarian President-elect has turned down the invitation by incumbent Rosen Plevneliev to take part in the Consultative Council on National Security (KSNS) taking place on Tuesday.

Rumen Radev, who won the presidential election earlier this month, has said he cannot attend the council before having assumed his duties.

Following is Krasimir Karakachanov, whose candidacy was endorsed by two bitterly antagonized nationalist parties - a rare display of unity.

Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov said that President Rosen Plevneliev has correctly vetoed the recent amendments to the Electoral Code concerning the voting abroad.
