Anti-government protests are held downtown Sofia for the sixth consecutive day. Protesters demand the resignation of this country’s Premier Boyko Borissov and the resignation of Bulgaria’s Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev. Protesters joined the street procession from the Council of Ministers building to the National Assembly building and back. In previous days protests were also held in front of the Ministry of Interior and the Palace of Justice. The Sofia Police calls on protesters to stay away from provocateurs. However, some leaders of the protesters commented that the provocations were coming from the authorities. Protests are also held in 16 district cities. Bulgarian communities in Berlin, London and Vienna also joined the protests of their compatriots.
