Za Zemiata, an environmental movement, the Bulgaria of Solidarity movement, coalition Bulgaira without GMO, and several other entities are calling in the protest.
CETA (EU-Canada Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement) is expected to be voted by EU member states on October 18. Organizers accuse the Bulgarian government of standing ready to give it the green light without having conducted an in-depth analysis of its impact.
