Former Bulgarian PM Dimitar Popov Dies at 88. In: novinite.com. 5. Dezember 2015, abgerufen am 18. August 2022 (englisch): „Following the resignation of Andrey Lukanov in 1990, Popov was selected as prime minister due to his perceived impartiality and non-affiliation to any political party.
He headed the so-called "government of national unity", which was supported by the majority of the political parties.
As prime minister, he oversaw the drafting of the new constitution and the holding of the second democratic general elections in 1991.“
