LIVE: Bulgaria's Anti-Euro Protests Intensify: Citizens Demand Referendum to Preserve Lev

#live #bulgariaprotest #lev
Thousands of Bulgarians have taken to the streets of Sofia to protest the country's planned eurozone accession on January 1, 2026, viewing it as a threat to national sovereignty. Led by nationalist and pro-Russian groups, including the Vazrazhdane party, protesters have set up a “City of the Lev” camp, demanding a referendum to retain the Bulgarian lev. They criticize the euro as a foreign financial system and express concerns over EU corruption and funding for conflicts, particularly in Ukraine. The demonstrations, ongoing since June 28, aim to pressure the government ahead of the ECOFIN committee’s final decision by July 8.
