Confidence in the Bulgarian government, headed by Prime Minister Saxe-Coburg fell with 13% in January compared to results in November, results from a conducted survey by the sociological agency Alpha Research between January 11 and January 18 show.

43% of the Bulgarians still trust the Cabinet. The negative attitude went up by 10% and reached 51%.

The drop in the confidence can be explained with the introduction of higher heating, electricity and taxes prices, the sociologists commented.

According to Stoyanov, the confidence in the government in general has not fallen dramatically. According to the survey, conducted in the second half of January, the rating of several ministers goes up – the rating of Foreign Minister Passy, for example, has increased. In spite of the drop of the confidence in the government, the rating of Prime Minister Saxe-Coburg remains positive and high.

The rating of General Boyko Borisov, Chief Secretary of the Interior Ministry, continues to go up, reaching 86%.
