According to sources, it was decided at the meeting to carry on the talks between the government and the opposition. Once the report has been delivered to the Supreme Court, further discussions may be held.
The federal government refused to dissolve the assemblies prior to May 14 and asserted that they could not be dissolved before the budget, according to the sources.
According to sources, the failure to reach a consensus at the meeting regarding the date of the assemblies’ dissolution caused the negotiations to stall. After the Supreme Court’s ruling, new negotiations may be held.
