The first session of the 51st National Assembly continues, BNT reported. It started on Monday but was suspended after MPs failed to elect a Speaker of Parliament.
Whether the 51st National Assembly will function depends on this key election. From "There is such a people" on Monday they proposed that Silvi Kirilov, who is the oldest member of parliament in this parliament, remain chairman until a majority is formed.
However, it is not yet clear whether this proposal will find support among the deputies in the plenary hall. According to Toshko Yordanov, there is an understanding of the proposal in the ranks of "BSP-United Left", APS and MECH.
Yesterday, PP-DB stated that they will decide after they have clarity on exactly what the legislative program will be. The stalemate was reached after the chairman was not elected on Monday and after the runoff.
GERB-SDS candidates Raya Nazaryan and PP-DB Andrey Tsekov received 68 votes each.
Deputies are again trying to elect a chairman
The result depends on whether the 51st National Assembly will function
