We are no longer able to hold our people, because Bulgaria’s President called them “thugs”, GERB MP Toma Bikov announced in a declaration on behalf of the Parliamentary group of the ruling GERB party.
MP Bikov underlined that the forthcoming protest of GERB party scheduled for 7 pm tonight is not against this country’s President, but against the attempts aimed at diverting Bulgaria from its European path. Toma Bikov called on GERB’s supporters to avoid clashes and escalation of tension.
On July 9 an anti-government protest was held downtown Sofia over the detention of senior officials from the Presidential administration.
