At around 8 PM tonight, after today’s national protest by miners and energy workers is over, an announcement will be made when the roadblocks will be lifted, Biser Binev from Podkrepa labour confederation at Maritsa-Iztok mines said after a meeting between protesters and the trade unions that took place on Trakia motorway.
