Bulgaria's Premier concedes defeat
Updated on 06 July 2009
A right-wing opposition party looks to have won Bulgaria's parliamentary election by a wide margin, and Prime Minister Sergei Stanishev has conceded defeat.
Official election results are not expected until later, but Sofia Mayor Boiko Borisov, the leader of the right-wing Citizens for European Development of Bulgaria, said he expected to form the country's next government and serve as its prime minister.
"I will take the responsibility to lead the next government," Mr Borisov said at a news conference on Sunday, the day of the vote.
