The government of Rosen Zhelyazkov Friday survived a no-confidence vote over its fiscal policy. It was its third.
The vote on the motion was 54-130 and zero abstentions.
It was backed by the parties that supported its submission: Vazrazhdane, MECh and Velichie. The votes against the motion came from GERB-UDF, MRF - New Beginning, BSP - United Left and There Is Such a People, as well as four unaffiliated deputies. Continue the Change and Alliance for Rights and Freedoms did not participate in the vote.
The debate on the motion, entered by Vazrazhdane over the "government's fiscal policy failure" and backed by Velichie and MECh, was held on Thursday.
The Zhelyazkov Cabinet has so far survived two no-confidence votes: one initiated by Vazrazhdane for "failure in the foreign policy sector" and a second one, submitted by MECh, for "failure in the fight against corruption".
