In relation to the decision of the Ambassador of Bulgaria to London, Marin Raykov, to meet with protesters in front of the Embassy, the diplomatic mission issued a press release, which refutes allegations that the Bulgarian Ambassador took the side of the protesters.
"The Ambassador of the Republic of Bulgaria is a representative of the state, of all institutions and of all citizens, regardless of their political affiliation. The ambassador does not take sides on domestic political issues, does not support or oppose one or another domestic political view, but is obliged to listen to their compatriots and cannot turn their back on them. All other interpretations are intended to discredit all those who have shown civilized and tolerant behavior during the protests in recent days, including protesters and the Embassy," the statement said.
