Quest for Peace: Hamas Contemplates Truce Amid Ceasefire Talks
Efforts persist to broker a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, with the latter considering a proposed 40-day truce from Israel.
Over half of Bulgarians, 51%, believe the anti-government protest rallies are no longer civil, but have turned political.
The data comes from a recent poll conducted via phone interviews by the Sova Harris agency on July 11 and 12 among 506 people of voting age.
The poll has been assigned by the Bulgarian news agency BGNES.
One third of residents of the largest cities in the country still see the protests as having a civil orientation. 56% support them.
Those, who are of the opinion that the Socialist-endorsed Cabinet of Prime Minister, Plamen Oresharski, must be given a chance to work until the elections for European Parliament in May 2014, have the largest share, according to the poll.
Sunday is the 31st day of protests in Bulgaria.
The series of anti-government protests was triggered by the scandalous appointment of controversial media mogul Delyan Peevski as Chair of the State Agency for National Security (DANS).
Although the appointment was revoked, the people went on to demand that the cabinet resign collectively over ties with oligarchs.
Protesters are also calling for Election Code amendments which will guarantee greater representation of the people in Parliament.
A much smaller rally in support of the cabinet Oresharski is held every evening as well in the park of the National Palace of Culture.
