Bulgaria’s GERB party, the largest opposition force, announced it will not support the government’s proposed budget. Former Finance Minister Vladislav Goranov stated the party believes it is not the opposition’s role to endorse the budget. The announcement was made during a press briefing with journalists. The budget is scheduled to be presented by the current Finance Minister later today. This rejection throws the budget’s passage into uncertainty, potentially leading to a political crisis or significant revisions. The government will now need to seek support from other parties to secure approval. Goranov’s statement signals a firm stance against the current administration’s financial plans.
