Bulgaria's caretaker Prime Minister, Marin Raykov, is holding talks Thursday with right-wing politicians Ivan Kostov and Martin Dimitrov, who were Chairs of the Blue Coalition in the now-dissolved Parliament.

The election board at the Council of Ministries which is to organize and carry out the snap election on May 12 is going to top the agenda of the meeting.

Raykov already met with the leaders of the three major political formations – the centrist Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria, GERB, led by former PM, Boyko Borisov, the left-wing Bulgarian Socialist Party, BSP, led by another former PM, Sergey Stanishev, and the ethnic Turkish Movement for Rights and Freedoms, led by Lyutvi Mestan.

On Friday, he will meet with the leader of the far-right, nationalist Ataka party, Volen Siderov.

On Wednesday, the PM sent letters to all parties in the dissolved Parliament asking them to provide a list of NGO representatives and observers to be included in the election board.

Regarding members of the Central Electoral Commission, CEC, it is still unknown if they will be only from NGOs or will include political parties' representatives.

The election board is a different structure from the planned public councils at some Ministries and the Cabinet.
