Bulgarian judges were unable to elect members to the Judicial College of the Supreme Judicial Council (VSS) during their initial attempt, as no candidate secured the necessary majority of votes. The voting process for the VSS members has concluded, but the outcome signifies a setback for the judiciary.
Meanwhile, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Galab Donev faces accusations from Bozhidar Bozhanov, a Member of the National Assembly, of tampering with documents related to the second pension pillar and sending two different versions of a letter to the European Commission on the matter. This comes as Member of the National Assembly Asen Vassilev presented a pessimistic outlook for the upcoming budget, forecasting economic impoverishment, recession, and rising unemployment.
In other news, a drone that struck a ship off the Shabla coast has been identified as a likely variant of the Russian Murena-300S, raising Black Sea security concerns. This development prompted a meeting of the defense ministers of Bulgaria, Turkey, and Romania in Sofia to discuss regional security.
