However, both of them have been surpassed in popularity by Kristalina Georgieva, European Commissioner for International Cooperation, Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Response who tops the ranking for best politicians in Bulgaria.

From the ratings of the other ministers in Borissov’s government, the one that has suffered most is that of Interior Minister Tsvetan Tsvetanov while the Regional Development Minister Rosen Plevneliev enjoys the highest rating in the government.

The survey has also demonstrated that the rating of the ruling GERB party has gone down by 4.3 per cent for the last quarter.
