GERB is creating a council with the parties that have supported the joint list of MEP candidates between GERB and the Union of Democratic Forces. The council will be presided over by Borissov, while its members will consist of the leaders of all parties that have signed political partnership agreements. The idea behind the council is to exchange opinions and discuss various topics related to the European elections campaign. IG/MY
