"11 years is enough and it's time for a change, not a replacement." Under this motto, the 23rd night of the anti-government protest is being held in Sofia. Commenting on the calls of the government for negotiations that would lead to the unblocking of two key intersections in the capital, one of the leaders of the protest, Attorney Nikolay Hadzhigenov announced that the only place for negotiations with the protest is on the square, BNR reported.

There will be evening protests in other regional cities as well. A protest rally in Stara Zagora said it would block the Trakia highway. On Sunday, August 2, protests of Bulgarians living in 15 cities in different countries will be held, Mariana de Meo, who lives in Vienna, has told BNR.
