Supporters of the MECH party protested in front of the National Assembly and blocked traffic on Knyaz Alexander I Square. Their protest was against the decision of the Speaker of the National Assembly Natalia Kiselova to dissolve the party’s parliamentary group. Their demonstration passed peacefully to the sounds of patriotic songs.
