Bulgaria’s incoming Prime Minister Rumen Radev proposed his cabinet lineup as he prepares to take office after a landslide election victory, breaking years of political deadlock.

Radev praised voters for putting an end to the crisis and to “governments with a short shelf life” after he was given the mandate by the country’s President Iliana Yotova on Thursday.
