The topic of a caretaker prime minister is becoming increasingly relevant in Bulgarian political life, eliciting comments from various institutions and political forces. According to the Constitution, potential candidates for the position include the Speaker of the National Assembly, the governor or deputy governor of the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB), the chairman or deputy chairman of the Audit Office, as well as the ombudsman or their deputy.

The Speaker of the National Assembly, Raya Nazaryan, expressed the opinion that the Speaker of the National Assembly, unlike the other candidates, is actively involved in the political process, which may call into question the impartiality of the elections. She emphasized that the Speaker of the National Assembly belongs to a political formation and will be a candidate for a member of parliament, which may affect the trust in the caretaker government.

Ombudsman Velislava Delcheva also expressed a position on the topic, pointing out that taking the position would violate the independence of the ombudsman's institution, which is a key principle. She also commented that responsibility does not mean accepting every position, but making an informed assessment of the situation.

Ivaylo Mirchev from "Yes, Bulgaria" pointed out that Andrey Gurov is a suitable option for caretaker prime minister to avoid the influence of Delyan Peevski on the government. He accused some of the previous candidates who refused to be caretaker prime minister of being influenced by Peevski.

Toshko Yordanov from ITN called the so-called "house book" "absolute nonsense" and emphasized the dynamics of political life, adding that the emergence of new political figures and formations is normal.
