Borisov said on Sunday he would resign after his center-right party`s candidate lost the race to become the Balkan country`s next president.
"In his letter to the lawmakers, the prime minister stated that the government will continue to perform its duties until the election of a new government," the statement said.
The collapse of Borisov`s government is likely to result in months of political uncertainty and probably trigger early elections in the spring.
