Former Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov believes early elections are likely to be scheduled in the country after the upcoming European elections in May.
Borisov said on Saturday that this scenario would come true if his opposition center-right GERB party fails to win the European elections in Bulgaria.
“I know for sure that, if GERB is not the top political power, early elections will be scheduled immediately,” he told reporters.
Borisov stated that GERB is now “3-4% ahead” of the Bulgarian Socialist Party, adding that the Socialists are “falling apart.”
Bulgaria’s embattled Socialist-led government has so far survived over eight months of relentless, and sometimes massive, anti-corruption protests.
