Nearly 50 students from the Sofia University and their colleagues from other universities protested in front of the Rectorate building against the collapse of the judicial system, BNR reports.

On the eve of the 100th day of protests it is important for a student movement to give impetus to the protests and show that Bulgarian students are not asleep and indifferent to the latest events, one of the protesting students told BNR.

Students do not want people to draw parallels and compare them to the Early Rising Students of the previous big protests held 7 years ago, yet they admit that their goals and tasks are the same. We aim for change, not replacement, the students say further.
