An antigovernmental demonstration was held in front of the National Assembly earlier. It was organized by the parliamentary Vazrazhdane party. The party calls on the government to resign because it believes it is failing in all its policies and instead of solving the country's problems, it is more concerned with the war in Ukraine.

At the same time, in front of the Council of Ministers, the VMRO party organized a rally-concert "in defence of the national interest in North Macedonia". VMRO calls on Prime Minister Kiril Petkov not to betray the Bulgarian interests and to uphold the historical truth. VMRO warns that if Kiril Petkov does not impose a vero on the day of the Conference of Foreign Ministers, from now on Bulgaria will not be able to veto on any topic related to the history and rights of Bulgarians.
