Boyko Borissov

A prominent entertainer and TV host Slavi Trifonov called a press conference on Tuesday, accusing his media partner bTV of censorship.

Private broadcaster bTV cancelled Trifonov's TV show on Monday after he publicly gave an ultimatum to Bulgaria's 44th National Assembly, demanding that the results of a November 2016 referendum be enforced.

At nearly 100% of processed protocols from voting sections, five political parties will enter the 44th Parliament, while GEB is again the leading political force.

After the Central Election Commission (CEC) announces the official results of the snap elections for parliamentary deputies, the deadline for which is March 30, it is President Rumen Radev's move.

Bulgaria's veteran political bruiser Boyko Borisov has begun efforts to form a lasting government and become prime minister for the third time following his election victory. 

His pro-EU center-right GERB party won the snap election in the European Union's poorest country with 32.6 percent of the ballot.

The former prime minister of Bulgaria verged on retaking power Sunday as his center-right party held a narrow lead in a contested election, a sign that Bulgarians still see their future lying with the EU, according to New York Times.

BSP's leader Korneliya Ninova has made a statement to the media at the headquarters of the party at 20 Positano St.

It was announced beforehand that she will not answer any questions. Her argument is the same as Boyko Borisov's - there are no official results yet.

The centre-right Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria, GERB, led by ex-Prime Minister Boyko Borissov, won the snap parliamentary polls on Sunday by a margin of 4 per cent from its closest rival, according to the first exit polls released by Bulgaria's main polling agencies - Alpha Research and Gallup International Balkan.

For a long time, we have had a dignified opponent. For a long time, it has been difficult for us in elections, stated former PM Boyko Borisov and congratulated the chairwoman of BSP Korneliya Ninova on "a serious manly battle"

GERB has won the snap parliamentary elections with 5% of the votes ahead of the second largest political formation BSP.

The 44th Parliament will include six formations, while the coalition Reformist Bloc - Glas Naroden is on the verge of the 4% threshold, showed data of sociological agency Alpha Research based on exit poll surveys at voting sections.

The chairman of GERB Boyko Borisov has stated that he is voting for a unified Bulgaria.

Polls opened in Bulgaria at 7am on March 26 for voting in the country's ahead-of-term election of a new Parliament.

These will be the country's tenth parliamentary elections since the start of democratic changes in 1989 and the fifth to be held before the legislature has served its full four-year term of office.
