TL;DR Summary

A coalition of Bulgarian parties has agreed to form a grand coalition government with two rotating prime ministers, tasked with implementing constitutional reforms and tackling corruption, particularly in the judiciary. The coalition will also reintroduce electronic voting to tackle electoral fraud. The agreement is intended to end years of political instability in Bulgaria, which has held five elections in the past two years. The GERB party, whose leader served as prime minister from 2009 to 2021, won the latest election, but neither party had a clear parliamentary majority, paving the way for difficult coalition talks.
