Bulgarian citizens gathered for the 33rd consecutive day on Independence square downtown Sofia to demand the resignations of Premier Boyko Borissov and Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev. The situation is calm, reporters of BNR inform. On Monday morning protesting mothers from the “System is Killing Us” moved their tents from the intersection in front of the Sofia University to the space locked between the Presidency and the Council of Ministers building. They decided to move their camp as “a sign of good will” and join other protesters in front of the Council of Ministers building. Protesters were expecting that Premier Borissov would hand in his resignation today. However, he did not meet their expectations.
