Nationalist Ataka (Attack) leader Volen Siderov let his temper get the best of him on Wednesday in front of the Parliament in Sofia where he almost assaulted a citizen.

Siderov got angry with the protesters gathered by the "Clear voices" civic initiative, to call for the complete opening of all communist-times secret files, a SNA reporter witnessed.

He exchanged some harsh words with one of the protesters and was close to picking a fight with the man, but the incident didn't go further.

The failed president runner seems to have a lot on his mind right now, for he finds it hard to comport like a true representative of the people, some commented.
