Will Bulgaria Have a Stable Government After Yet Another Election in June? Our Readers Have Spoken
On our Facebook page, readers were asked about Bulgaria's stability after the June elections
More than 200 workers of the state-owned firm "Avtomagistrali Tcherno More" ("Black Sea Highways") demanded their delayed salaries Saturday.
Black Sea Highways is based in the northeast Bulgarian city of Shumen, where the workers held their protest. They have not been paid their salaries since October 2008.
"Our children are also here, and many of them have no money at all because their parents have not been paid in five months", the trade union leader Gospodin Yankov stated.
The workers demand that the Bulgarian state pay Black Sea Highways the money it owes to the firm. 150 workers are expected to travel from Shumen to Sofia on Monday to protest before the building of the National Road Infrastructure Agency.
The state-owned Black Sea Highways works on the construction and repairs of roads, mostly in northeast Bulgaria, but in the recent years has started to expand its activity all over Bulgaria and even abroad.
