Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borissov was greeted with applause in the village of Krastava, Velingrad region. "We have done a lot in regions dominated by MRF," PM Borissov said. "This is not only in places where there are GERB mayors. We do not divide people. We are not doing it for ‘bravo’, but to show that we love them, that we are one people," Borissov said, BNT reported.

"They speak very well on the yellow paving stones downtown Sofia, but they should come to these regions to see if besides GERB and MRF, those of "Yes, Bulgaria!," BSP of Maya Manolova, had any support. Let them come here and see who is who in this situation," the Prime Minister said. “They speak on behalf of the people. They call it people’s uprising. Well, they (pointing to the builders) are more than the protesters,” Borissov added.
