Stanishev elected PM, leading Socialist-Turk minority coalition.
After failing to win a first round of balloting, he won a second round 120-119 with one MP not voting. His coalition has the steady support of 116 MPs. Talks about a coalition with the Simeonists had broken down about a week ago.

Getting weirder...apparently in Bulgaria, the parliament has to do an up-or-down vote on the list of ministers submitted by the PM. And he lost that 119-120 (that one opposition MP who's never voting is apparently in hospital waiting to die). So, PM Stanishev resigned after one day in office. What happens next is totally up in the air. Might well be new elections.

Yes. Socialist, Simeonites and Turks have settled on a grand coalition after all. Stanishev is PM.

And Simeon? Future president?

And what about the Jewish foreign minister, Solomon Passy?

Not a member of the new cabinet, replaced by a Socialist.

The new cabinet includes 8 Socialists not counting Stanishev, one of them (the new foreign minister) also deputy pm, 5 Simeonites (but neither Passy nor Simeon), 3 Turks (but not their party head Ahmet Dogan), and one independent (at finance. He used to be of the main rightwing party, the Union of Democratic Forces, and was deputy finance minister from 97-01. He quit that party in 03.)

Montana is in Bulgaria too? Who knew. Ataka is a terrific party, by the way, if I didn't comment already (which I probably did but am too lazy to look over the thread).

Let's hope this government is capable of finishing all the reforms necessary to be admitted to the European Union. The antipathy between the socialists and the simeonites does not promise much good.

Hopefully not. it would be terrible for the EU to fail admiting them, so I hope they do fail it.
