The Central Election Commission (CEC) met on April 11 its deadline for declaring the names of those deemed elected as members of Bulgaria’s 45th National Assembly, following the parliamentary elections a week earlier.
Fourteen of the initial 240 names notified the CEC that they did not want to take up their seats, among them GERB party leader and current Prime Minister Boiko Borissov.
Word is now awaited from head of state President Roumen Radev, who has up to a month after the elections to convene the first sitting of the National Assembly. Should Radev not do so, Parliament may be convened by at least a fifth of its members.
