Deputies gathered to make a fifth attempt in a row to elect a Speaker of the National Assembly.
"We are proceeding to a new round of proposals and voting, according to the accepted procedural rules," said Silvi Kirilov, chairing the meeting at the beginning, as quoted by Dariknews.bg
Toshko Yordanov from ITN and Borislav Gutsanov from BSP got into a verbal clash.
"With the election of Silvi Kirilov as the Speaker of the 51st National Assembly, we are moving towards early elections, therefore we are once again raising the candidacy of Assoc. Nataliya Kiselova", said Gutsanov from the rostrum of the parliament.
"There is such a people" naturally, he will once again nominate Silvi Kirilov for the Speaker of the Parliament, Toshko Yordanov said.
Yordanov directly addressed the deputies with the words: PP, "Vazrazhdane", APS and MECH show responsibility and go beyond their own party goals in this situation. If there is a runoff between Mr. Kirilov and anyone else, I believe that the result will be the same as last time. We answered the BSP to all their fears and questions, and at the moment we are receiving a declaration that bogs down the work of the parliament and says the false sentence that if Silvi Kirilov is elected, it means early elections. So this is not true. BSP dilutes, delays and stops the process. This strengthens my doubts", said Yordanov.
He turned to the PP-DB saying that Silvi Kirilov is not a "Revival" nominee, but a compromise between everyone.
