On Monday, either we go to President Rumen Radev with a folder (with the names of the ministers - ed.) as a result of negotiations, or we know immediately that we are going to new elections. GERB leader Boyko Borissov told journalists in Plovdiv. 

President Rumen Radev is expected to give the first exploratory mandate to the largest parliamentary force in the 49th National Assembly - GERB-SDS, on Monday. The mandate will be received by outgoing GERB Deputy Prime Minister Mariya Gabriel, who is expected to hand the president a folder containing the composition of the new cabinet. Borissov stressed that there would be no further negotiations on government formation after Gabriel handed over the folder. He refused to comment on specific names in the possible composition of the future cabinet.
