Bulgaria holds another snap election

27/10/2024 7:12

        Bulgarians head to the polls on Sunday for their seventh snap election in four years but opinion surveys suggest it is unlikely to break a political deadlock that has slowed economic reforms in the European Union's poorest member state.
        
        Bulgaria has been plagued by short-lived governments since 2020 when anti-graft protests helped end a coalition led by the centre-right GERB party.
        
        Latest opinion polls suggest that once again no single party will win a parliamentary majority, setting the stage for a fresh round of difficult and prolonged coalition talks.
