“Vazrazhdane” party has threatened to organize another protest after February 20, as Premier Kiril Petkov has not yet decided whether and when the green certificate would be abolished.
Acording to the leader of the opposition party, Kostadin Kostadinov, the sitting of the working group formed to discuss the issue has fallen through and another sitting has not been convened yet. He noted that “Vazrazhdane” party was inclined towards making compromises for the gradual abolition of green certificates and Covid-19 tests.
“We have waited enough and decided to organize a protest, because we have run out of patience and because the other side is unwilling to hold discussions with us”, MP Kostadinov further said.
