Bulgarians living abroad who support the protests of their compatriots in Bulgaria demanding the resignation of the government and of Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev sent a video message to them with the motto “You are not alone”. "We, who are protesting outside our homeland, would like to thank you for raising your voice against the criminals who have been destroying the foundations of statehood and democratic government in Bulgaria for decades”, the video reads.

Yavor Paunov, who is one of the organizers of the protests in the German city of Mannheim, told Radio Bulgaria that yesterday’s speech of Premier Boyko Borissov encouraged the Bulgarian people living outside their home country to continue protesting until Borissov and Prosecutor General Geshev resign. “Boyko Borissov has no moral right to restart the country provided that he and the organized crime group he represents, are the main reason why Bulgaria needs a restart”, Yavor Paunov commented.
