The protests in the centre of Sofia continue this evening - against high fuel prices, as well as the protest by parents of children with disabilities who are demanding the resignation of Deputy Prime Minister Valeri Simeonov. The two protests merged.

“What has brought us together is that the government must resign. Over the past ten years one million people have emigrated from the country. In Serbia naphtha costs 70 eurocents, here it costs 1.20 euro – a distance of 100 kilometres,” a protester said for the Bulgarian National Radio.
