I can't answer who suggested removing the tents. At the Coalition Council we discussed the issue for an hour and came to the conclusion that the police should do their job, NFSB leader Valeri Simeonov said. Speaking to Nova TV, the deputy speaker of parliament said that GERB and the United Patriots were elected by more than 1.5 million votes during regular elections, recognized by all.

There will be new elections, but this will happen in 6 months. We do not see any serious demands from the protesters. They have no platform. I see a struggle for power, but not in a constitutional way, the politician said. The Coalition Council did not discuss the idea of ​​MP Georgi Markov for the impeachment of President Rumen Radev, Simeonov added.
