Survey: GERB Set to Dominate Next Parliament with 80 Deputies, WCC-DB to Lose More Seats

Over 70% of the respondents said they were unhappy with Borisov's economic, social, healthcare, and income policies

That's hardly surprising given the government's policy whose priority for the past three years has been infrastructure.
