In an op-ed published in the Jerusalem Post on March 12, Robert Singer calls on Bulgaria to ban Lukov March in Sofia by law. Singer, a member of the CAM (Combat Antisemitism Movement) Board of Governors, writes that Bulgaria has an opportunity to become a leader in the EU against anti-Semitism. 
He recalls that for 5 years he has been fighting against Lukov March, which has attracted far-right and neo-Nazi groups from Germany, Sweden, Hungary and Estonia. But in 2023, thanks to the "strong and vital support of Prosecutor-General Ivan Geshev, Sofia Mayor Yordanka Fandakova, Interior Minister Ivan Demerdzhiev, and local Jewish leaders," the march was not held.
