If the price for bringing down GERB and turning the country into a modern and European one is for us to step into the muddy swamp of politics, we will probably pay it. This was said to the Free Europe website by one of the leaders of the anti-government protests in Bulgaria, Nikolai Hadjigenov. He said he supported the "Everyone against GERB" formula, but without the socialists from BSP and the Movement for Rights and Freedoms, which he identified as GERB's accomplices.

Another anti-governmental protest began on October 19 after 7 pm in Sofia, demanding the resignation of the prime minister, the chief prosecutor and early elections.
