IN On the 66th day of protests against the government, the meeting place for disgruntled citizens was again the so-called “Triangle of Power.”

At around 7 pm, they began to gather in the plaza in front of the Presidency, blocking traffic on Tsar Osvoboditel Blvd. shortly before 8 pm, NOVA reported.

Videos with speeches by Prime Minister Boyko Borissov and National Assembly Speaker Tsveta Karayancheva were shown again on the façade of the former party house, now the official headquarters of the National Assembly, BGNES reported.

Lawyer Nikolai Hadjigenov of the Poison Trio said there was still no answer as to why Chief Prosecutor Geshev was living at the government residence in Boyana. On this occasion, he filed an appeal today with the Administrative Court. It also awaits a response from the Council of Ministers.

The date of the third “Great Rising of the People” will be announced on Sunday at 6 pm

“Until that day we were a mafia, and today Borissov of Kardzhali announced that he is ready to negotiate. How is the prime minister going to negotiate with the mafia?” Asked Arman Babikyan from the rostrum.

Mariela Angelova, a Bulgarian living in Canada, also spoke from the rostrum. She said that the community on the other side of the ocean is following what is happening in Bulgaria and Bulgarians who have experience abroad are ready to help change at home.

Although smaller than usual, the protesters remain in the square until their demands are met, which remain unchanged: the resignation of the government and Attorney General Ivan Geshev.

The atmosphere is calm. Police presence has increased.
