- President Rumen Radev handed the second mandate to the second political force - GERB, who immediately returned it.
- The Bulgarian Socialist Party and Democratic Bulgaria, which could receive a third mandate to form a government, refuse coalition negotiations with GERB.
- The chances are Bulgaria is heading for new early elections, which will go around in circles and in the coming months Bulgarian voters will most probably go to the polls several times.
