Denkov Government
The Denkov Government was the 102nd cabinet of Bulgaria. It was approved by the parliament on 6 June 2023, and was a majority coalition of GERB and PP–DB. Per the coalition agreement, it was set to be a rotation government, where PP–DB's Nikolai Denkov would start with the premiership, with GERB's Mariya Gabriel serving as deputy prime minister, and after nine months, the two would switch positions. Per the agreement, Denkov and his cabinet resigned on 6 March 2024 in preparation for Gabriel to form her cabinet, although the Denkov government stayed on in a caretaker capacity until a new cabinet was formed.
On 20 March 2024, the planned government rotation and signing of a renewed government manifest for the next nine months had failed. A call for further negotiations to attempt rescuing the failed rotation agreement, was left unmet during March 20-21; but a last final negotiation round began on March 22. The two parties GERB and Movement for Rights and Freedoms concluded on March 24, that the latest negotiation round now also had failed, leaving the President of Bulgaria no other choice than for snap elections to be called.
The Bulgarian President Rumen Radev, announced after having concluded a further second and third failed attempt to form a government among the elected parties, that he would sign a decree on 9 April 2024 approving Dimitar Glavchev as a new caretaker prime minister, along with a decree approving his proposed caretaker government, and at the same time he would sign a decree setting the date for new early elections on 9 June 2024.
The cabinet consisted of the following ministries:
In October 2023 three of the opposition parties in the 49th National Assembly of Bulgaria, "Vazrazhdane", the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP) and There Is Such a People (ITN), submitted a first motion of no confidence against the Denkov cabinet over its policy in the energy sector. The government survived the no-confidence vote on 13 October. The government was supported by 143 members of parliament from the political groups of GERB, PP–DB and DPS.
Upon the completion of the investiture vote in parliament, the Donev Caretaker Cabinet began the procedure for the transition of power to the newly appointed Denkov government.
On the 6th of June, Prime Minister-Elect Denkov met with outgoing Caretaker Prime Minister Donev, in an official ceremony. During the ceremony, Donev expressed hope that the regular cabinet would continue working on the development of the country and stated that he believed that the new government had the same "strategic priorities" as the outgoing caretaker one. Denkov, on the other hand, expressed criticisms of the action of the Caretaker Cabinet, specifically accusing the Caretaker Cabinet of sabotaging the transfer of power by submitting the resignations of all ministerial staff, including vice-ministers.
On the 5 March 2024, PM Denkov officially submitted the resignation of his cabinet to the National Assembly, saying the decision was in the spirit of the governing deal which had been reached between GERB and PP–DB earlier.
