The Federation of the anarchists in Bulgaria organized what has become their traditional Saturday protest in Sofia against the increasing prices in the country. Shouting, "The prices are rising, we should rise as well" the anarchists marched down the Vitosha Bulevard downtown Sofia. Protesting the high jumps in electricity and heating prices and other commodities, the anarchists took the streets once again. They invited passersby to join the rally that ended in front of the National Theater Ivan Vazov. Despite worries that their march could come to a violent clash with the Roma community, celebrating its international holiday with a rally, the two groups did not come in contact and everything ended peacefully.
