“At the moment the mafia wants to bring down the government. Gambling, smuggling, they are all in the street against us. And this gives me reason to say that they must not be given our resignation,” said PM Boyko Borissov in a social media stream from an inspection of a new centre for children with oncological diseases in Opitsvet village, the BNR reports.

Boyko Borissov once again stated that the protesters are demanding the resignation of the government without offering any alternatives, without there being people who are sufficiently trained to whom he can leave the governance of the country. He added that the government continues to work actively.
