Summary/Abstract: The constitutional revision adopted in Bulgaria at the end of 2023 took place in a context of successive institutional crises that the country has been experiencing for several years due to the impossibility of forming a government following the legislative elections. Such a situation necessarily led to a strengthening of the role of the President of the Republic, which the constituent wished to limit, by establishing a list of candidates who could be appointed to the post of interim Prime Minister. This new method of appointment raises many questions regarding institutional order, which are analyzed in this study through the prism of the decision pronounced by the Bulgarian Constitutional Court on 26 July 2024.
