SOFIA (Reuters) - Bulgaria's government intends to stay in power for its full four-year term until next spring despite anti-government protests and a vote of no-confidence planned for next week, one of the leaders of the junior coalition partner said on Thursday.

Valeri Simeonov said the coalition has agreed to discuss a government reshuffle after the no-confidence vote, which it can survive with the support of a small populist party and independent lawmakers.
