MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Holding general elections in the United Kingdom earlier than or in 2020 should be subject of a new prime minister's decision, UK leader David Cameron said Monday.
Cameron announced his resignation on Friday, after the results of the Brexit referendum were announced, with the majority of the voters supporting the "leave" campaign, which the prime minister has opposed.
"I think the right thing would be for the new prime minister to take office and it will be for them to decide whether to fulfill the terms of this parliament or something else," Cameron told the parliament, when asked about the date of the next general elections.
