The agreement on forming a government on a rotating basis is not a coalition between the first and the second political force, GERB leader Boyko Borisov told reporters. In his words it is responsible behavior because otherwise in June “we shall have no state”. “I call it responsible behavior by parties that are diametrically opposed, with programmes that are 100% identical, which have at the same time put their egos aside, and have come together to overcome the crisis,” Boyko Borissov said.

According to Finance Ministry data, if no state budget for the year is approved  after 10 June, or if last year’s budget is not extended once more, the state will only be able to spend what it has collected. However, at the moment it is, in practice not possible to adopt a brand new budget for the year by 10 June, and the most probable hypothesis is for the MPs to vote one more extension of last year’s budget.

This means that spending will continue at the same level as during the same period of 2022, taking into account the enactments of the National Assembly, the Council of Ministers and other documents which set down additional or reduced budgetary means.
