The Forty-Seventh National Assembly was a convocation of the National Assembly of Bulgaria, formed according to the results of the early parliamentary elections in Bulgaria, held on 14 November 2021.[1]
See main article: Petkov Government. After coalition negotiations between the parliamentary groups of PP, BSP, ITN and DB, the four parties agreed to a cabinet structure and a common legislative program.[2] Despite some political differences, the four political forces were united behind the idea of ousting the GERB and DPS parties from power, which they deemed as corrupt.[3] The failure of the previous two convocations of the National Assembly to elect a government also made the formation of a new one an urgency.[4]
On 8 June 2022 ITN leader Slavi Trifonov announced that he was putting and end to the coalition by pulling his ministers from the cabinet. He explained that decision by calling the government's policy in regards to North Macedonia ‘weak’ and blaming Finance Minister Asen Vasilev for the economic status of Bulgaria.[5]
Following that announcement, 6 members of the National Assembly from ITN declared their independence. Nikola Minchev was among the first victims of the government becoming a minority one by being removed as Speaker of the National Assembly on June 6, 2022.[6] The Petkov Government was removed from office after a successful vote of no-confidence against itself.[7]
