The Bulgarian Socialist Party, whose coalition government has seen a series of mass protest rallies for over a month now, is ready for talks with the opposition center-right GERB, according to BSP leader Sergey Stanishev.
“We are ready for a dialogue with GERB within the National Assembly,” Stanishev told reporters on Tuesday.
On Sunday GERB leader and former Prime Minister Boyko Borisov informed he was ready to negotiate with two out of the three other parties in the current Parliament.
Stanishev has now welcomed Borisov’s wish for a dialogue, saying he “would not bypass it.”
The series of anti-government protests was triggered by the scandalous appointment of controversial media mogul Delyan Peevski as Chair of the State Agency for National Security (DANS).
Although the appointment was revoked, the people went on to demand that the Socialist-endorsed cabinet of Prime Minister, Plamen Oresharski, resign collectively over ties with oligarchs.
