Citizens protested in front of the Monument to the Soviet Army in central Sofia. They demanded that it be removed immediately from Knyazhevska Garden. The demonstration coincided with the date of the coup d'état of September 9, 1944, carried out during the partial invasion of the Red Army.
“On September 9, let us gather with a rope in hand and pull the monument. No more lies and delay. Dismantle the monument to the occupier now!" , the protesters said.
Stories of the Soviet occupation sounded on the speakers. Two red flags with a hammer and sickle were burned. "We want a Bulgarian monument", "Russia out of Bulgaria", read some of the posters held by the protesters.
