The Ministry of Interior is preparing for the new protest of "Vazrazhdane". The party said that it is organizing a demonstration on Wednesday in front of the National Assembly building.
"Vazrazhdane" organized a protest "in defense of the Bulgarian lev" on Saturday (February 22) in front of the BNB. The protesters then marched to the Ministry of Finance building and reached the European Commission representation in Sofia.
The protesters began throwing eggs with red paint at the building, tried to set the entrance on fire, and a member of parliament from "Vazrazhdane" Ivaylo Chorbov tried to break one of the windows with a hammer.
All this led to clashes with the police. A total of 29 people were injured - 19 civilians and 10 police officers.
After the clashes, Interior Minister Daniel Mitov condemned the aggression against the police. He ordered the Ministry of Interior to apply the full force of the law to preserve civil peace.
