The intersections on Eagles’ Bridge, in front of the Sofia University and between the Presidency building and the Council of Ministers building in Sofia remain blocked by protesters. Traffic in the area of the Romanian Embassy returned to normal. Last night the intersection near the embassy was temporarily blocked by demonstrators.

“Bulgaria is not what it should be”, the posters displayed near the tents of the protesters read. The people from the three campsites told a BNR reporter that there was no tension and provocations last night. They voiced their determination to continue the blockades until Premier Borissov and Prosecutor General Geshev resign. The 38th day of protests in Bulgaria will begin tonight in front of the Council of Ministers building.
