[8] A major obstacle in the organisation of the elections came in late-September, when the company which had previously stored and delivered machines for voting, Siela Normal, announced that it wished for a greater compensation in return for the service that it provides.

[12] The publication of provisional election results on October the 27th and 28th was accompanied by wide-scale allegations of vote buying, as well as other electoral irregularities by a number of political parties and civil organisations.

[13][14] The alleged failure of the caretaker government to organise free and fair elections led to calls for its resignation by various political forces, specifically by the parliamentary party, ITN.

[17] Prime Minister Glavchev similarly praised the cabinet's organisation of the elections, commenting on October the 28th that a number of steps were taken, including the greater verification of machine-voting devices, in order to insure the integrity of the voting process.

[20] The Glavchev caretaker cabinet undertook a number of steps to adress the security threats generated by the increased tensions in the Middle Eastern region, motivated by the intensification of the Israel-Hezbollah conflict, as well as the Iranian involvement in it.

On 28 September, with an Israeli ground operation into Lebanese territory looking imminent, the Glavchev government organised a work-group to coordinate the evacuation of Bulgarian citizens from Lebanon.

On September 3d, caretaker minister of defense, Atanas Zapryanov, confirmed that Bulgaria had delivered 8 military-aid packages to Ukraine, all of them strictly in line with previous parliamentary decisions and largely composed of out-dated equipment in-storage.

[27] In December, caretaker Prime Minister Dimitar Glavchev was set to sign a long-term security cooperation agreement with Ukraine during the monthly meeting of the European Council in Brussels.

[28] This move provoked confusion from the parliamentary parties, GERB and PP-DB, who claimed that Glavchev was entitled to sign such a security agreement due to prior National Assembly decisions.

[40] The proposed budget was criticised by a number of parliamentary parties, trade unions as well as the Bulgarian National Bank, for allegedly increasing projected-spending without cause and setting up unsustainable revenue streams.

[41] [42][43] Due to opposition from the National Assembly, the caretaker cabinet proposed a law on the 31st of December that aimed to extend certain welfare payments and revenue collection methods until the adoption of a budget for 2025, thus insuring that essential government activity continued.
