The Trakia highway in Bulgaria remains blocked for 7 days now by protesting miners and energy workers near the town of Stara Zagora. The Pass of the Republic, the Galabovo-Radnevo road, the Radnevo-Nova Zagora road and the main Ruse-Svilengrad road near the village of Glavan remain closed.
The protesters were firm that they would not lift the blockade until the territorial plans for the transition to non-coal energy, which the cabinet sent to the European Commission last week, were withdrawn.
