Vazrazhdane plans to back the cabinet resignation but wants Bulgaria to pump the brakes on euro adoption by asking for a one-year delay. Party leader Kostadin Kostadinov says the country can request an extension until 2027 because of force majeure circumstances like not having a budget or a functioning government. Bulgaria and Romania got special treaty exemptions back when they joined the EU, and the European Parliament only lifted those exceptions recently.
Kostadinov thinks elections should happen by late March since Easter falls in mid-April, and nobody wants to run votes during Palm Sunday. The timing depends on how President Radev handles the mandate roulette with different parties trying to form coalitions before everything collapses into another snap election cycle.
