Daniel Mitov Ready for Foreign Minister Role Amid Geopolitical Test in Bulgaria
Daniel Mitov, Deputy Chairman of GERB, has expressed his readiness to assume the position of Acting Foreign Minister
Every minister in the new Bulgarian government will hand in his resignation if he fails to fulfill his promises and meet the voters' expectations, the prime minister's top aide said.
"The only democratic way to go in case of failure is the resignation. Each and every one of our ministers carries it in his pocket," Tsvetan Tsvetanov, the formal leader of the election winner GERB and future Interior Minister, told the Saturday afternoon broadcast of private bTV private channel.
He declined to disclose the names of the deputy prime ministers, who will be officially announced on July 27.
The conservative center-right GERB claimed 116 MP seats in July 5 vote, shattering Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev's Socialist Party and falling just five seats short of holding a majority in the 240-seat unicameral parliament, which makes it easy for it to enter a wide range of informal alliances.
The party has already proposed a memorandum, which highlights the unity and consolidation of the majority, support for the future cabinet and the adoption of constitutional amendments.
The memorandum has been unconditionally supported only by the nationalist Ataka party.
GERB government brought in Western-educated economists and reformists to fulfill a pledge to revive the economy and clamp down on chronic corruption.
