The Forty-Third National Assembly ( Bulgarian: Четиридесет и третото народно събрание) was a convocation of the National Assembly of Bulgaria, formed according to the results of the parliamentary elections in Bulgaria, held on October 5, 2014. [1]
After tense negotiations for its formation, which were concluded with a
centre-right coalition agreement between
GERB and the
Reformist Bloc, the 43rd National Assembly elected the
Second Borisov Government. The
right wing
Patriotic Front and the
centre-left
ABV party both declared their support for the government in order to ensure the needed majority.
[2]
The
ABV’s disagreements with its partners had reached their limit on 10 May 2016, when the party moved to the opposition side and
Ivaylo Kalfin resigned as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Labour and Social Policy. Nonetheless, the government still controlled the majority in the National Assembly.

After the
2016 presidential election election saw
GERB’s candidate
Tsetska Tsacheva lose to
Rumen Radev, who was supported by the opposition,
Boyko Borisov resigned as Prime Minister on 17 November 2016 and was replaced on 26 January 2017 by caretaker
