Ivaylo Mirchev from We Continue the Change-Democratic Bulgaria accused the police and the ruling coalition of deliberately pulling security during massive protests in Sofia, which let agitators start fights near the DPS-Novo Nachalo headquarters on Vrabcha Street. He called both the interior minister and Boyko Borisov during the march when he noticed zero cops anywhere, but neither responded nor seemed aware of what was happening. Mirchev said authorities intentionally removed protection to trash the biggest demonstration in 35 years, and he reported sketchy masked groups lurking around National Stadium before things went south.
The MP also suspects sabotage after a substation conveniently failed and cut power downtown, saying the facility never had issues before. His party wants the interior minister gone and the 2026 budget scrapped, and they refuse to join any new coalition in the current parliament. Despite worries about eurozone delays, Mirchev insisted the country is basically already in since euro notes are circulating and the transition will happen within a month regardless.
