The Prime Minister had set a deadline of April 2013 to clean his ruling Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria party, GERB, from all individuals with even suspected shady reputation that could be detrimental for the party ahead of the summer general election.
Borisov had also ordered ministers to come up with a plan by mid-February how to win the election and have a majority with 122 seats in the Parliament, stressing he did not want a second term on "crutches."
