Opposition Volya Party Calls for New Expert Cabinet to Lead Bulgaria Out of Protests

Genoa, Jul 19 (Sputnik) Bulgaria needs a transition government composed of experts that would lead the country out of the ongoing crisis and bring it to the next elections, Veselin Mareshki, the leader of the opposition Volya party, told Sputnik in an interview as anti-government protests continue to rock the country.
The demonstrations have been underway for over a week already and show no signs of abating. Protesters in the capital of Sofia chant "Mafia out!" and demand resignation of Prime Minister Boyko Borissov and his entire cabinet, accusing him of corruption and links with criminal groups.
"I do not know if the government will resign, but from the parliamentary rostrum I called on the parties for common sense and unity to deal with the economic consequences of the pandemic. I also called for the creation of an expert cabinet, which would unite patriots and pragmatists, who would lead Bulgaria out of the crisis and organize fair and honest elections. And then – whatever the people choose," Mareshki said.
