And when we talk about new elections, it is logical, because in this way a certain amount of money will be saved. In order not to spend unnecessary money from the budget. In this way, the Bulgarian voter will not go to the polls every week, so I think that his decision is logical and practical, “BNR reported.
Toma Bikov from GERB-UDF also considers it logical for the elections to be 2 in 1. “And I hope that in the first possible moment this parliament will be dissolved, because it has no function anymore and the sooner it is dissolved, the less damage there will be an image of parliamentarism in general, “he told state radio.

He denied that the Socialists were considering another presidential candidacy, after they had already supported Rumen Radev.
“I think that since there is BSP support for the president, it is better to go in that direction and keep our word. I do not think that at the moment” pushing the boat “is in favor of anyone. “Here, we have a date for elections, maybe another session of the National Assembly will be held, there is something to report, we have nothing to fear – we are going to the elections,” the MP added.

Bulgaria is facing very serious crises – these are the Covid crisis, the refugee crisis and the political crisis, and we hope that in the upcoming elections at least the political crisis will be decisive, “the MRF MP said.

I want to wish a meaningful campaign to talk to people about their good future, “said MP Antoaneta Tsoneva on Darik Radio.
Maria Capon from “Stand up BG! We are coming” is not worried about the specific date, but about whether there will be enough time for the planned legislative activity.
“The date set by the president is his priority, it doesn’t matter what it is. What is more important for us, however, is whether we will have time this week, because date 14 is the same as whether the decree will be issued on Tuesday. or Friday, important for us from the parliamentary group of “Stand up BG!
