A gathering of citizens in front of Plovdiv's Municipal Council building voiced their opposition on Wednesday to a controversial proposal suggesting the relocation of the "Alyosha" Monument to the Soviet Army.

A heated controversy erupted within Parliament following the revelation of images capturing a Christmas celebration hosted by Democratic Bulgaria. Georgi Svilensky, a member of the Bulgarian Socialist Party (BSP), unveiled photos portraying cakes shaped to resemble the Soviet Army monument, fueling intense debate and criticism.

The political parties were sharply criticized because of the information presented by "Die Welt" that Bulgaria sent weapons and fuel to Ukraine under the "Petkov" cabinet.

GERB and "Democratic Bulgaria", which insist that our country help Kyiv, criticized the previous cabinet for hiding the information and using intermediaries.
