Employees of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have once again protested in front of the department's building with demands for decent remuneration and future for the Bulgarian diplomatic service, BTA reported. The protesters expect their demand for salary rise to be partially satisfied soon. They expect their wages to be raised by 30% by the end of this week. Yesterday, MFA workers protested in front of the Council of Ministers.

Earlier, on December 2, they announced strike action demanding a pay rise and indexation of travel allowances. Two days earlier, on November 30, there was an hour-long protest for decent payment, with protesters throwing coins as a sign of protest.
