Plamen Oresharski's government is set to resign within a month. This means that the one-year rule of the coalition between the BSP and the MRF will soon come to an end. This has come after the announcement of the results of the European Parliament elections, which showed that the popularity of the BSP has decreased compared to a year ago.

Ludwig von Mises was born on September 29, 1881 in Lemberg (Lviv, present-day Ukraine), but grew up and spent the first half of his life in the Austrian capital of Vienna.
