Bulgarian Ruling Coalition Loses Majority as One Party Leaves
Bulgaria's ruling coalition lost its majority in parliament after a founding party left, signaling that the country's years-long political crisis is set to flare up again.
Former Prime Minister Boyko Borissov, who leads the largest party in parliament, will now have to rely on forces that are formally not part of his ruling alliance after the Democracy, Rights and Freedoms, a faction traditionally representing ethnic Turks, decided to drop out of the coalition.
