Sofia: New elections for the parliament in Bulgaria, originally scheduled for October 20, have been postponed, President Rumen Radev announced on Monday.
The formation of an interim Cabinet, which was supposed to organise the parliamentary election, has unexpectedly failed.
Radev refused to approve the interim Cabinet proposed by the designated interim Prime Minister Goritsa Grancharova-Kozhareva by decree.
The bone of contention is the current Interior Minister Kalin Stoyanov, who was supposed to retain his post in the new interim government. President Radev and the pro-Western liberal-conservative coalition We Continue the Change - Democratic Bulgaria (PP-DB) accuse him of being unable to organise fair elections. (DPA)
