Traditionally, thousands came to Shipka, but this time, along with Russian and Bulgarian flags, where there were several “Vazrazhdane” (Revival) party flags. The party's Facebook account was also broadcasting live, with calls for resignation, qualifications such as “American base”, “traitors” and “NATO out”.

Before the escalation of tensions after the Prime Minister's speech, he was seen putting his finger in front of his mouth several times, calling for silence, as the chants did not stop even during the funeral prayer and the recitation of verses.
