The Socialist party and the post-election coalition between Simeon II movement and Movement for Rights and Freedom could come out with a joint nominee for the presidential elections. This is envisaged in one of the three variants offered at the yesterday`s plenum by BSP vice-chairman Georgy Bozhinov. Before the end of August an official meeting between the NMS II and the `Coalition for Bulgaria` will be held. To us the acceptable variant is to have a candidate, who can win the elections and is singled out with the support of our coalition, leader Georgy Parvanov said. Our nominee for the president should personify the new consensus, Parvanov said. According to him, collaboration with the NMS II was a matter of time. Our offer to those in power will be standing, he said. The nomination of someone from the party in August will be accompanied by a political dialogue with parliamentary and extra-parliamentary formations, the socialist leader said. According to the second variant, the `Coalition for Bulgaria` will single out a party nominee. It`s possible that the coalition will stake on a non-party nominee with broader public support. Among the names of the possible nominees are those of Stephan Danailov, Ivan Slavkov, Irina Bokova, Andrey Pantev and Georgy Parvanov. I have information that personal negotiations on the vice-ministers` posts are being held with left-wing representatives, Parvanov said. He refused to specify the names.
