An online petition, which already has more than half of the signatures that it has set as its goal, is appealing to Bulgaria’s caretaker Interior Minister Boiko Rashkov to ensure that the 2021 Sofia Pride passes off without attacks from ultra-nationalist groups.
The petition points out that ultra-nationalist groups have announced that they will target and attack all Pride events in Bulgaria.
“These are not just words – the attacks have already started, the petition points out:
On May 15, a mob of 300 neo-Nazis attacked the 40 participants at the first-ever Pride event in the city of Bourgas by throwing eggs, rocks, and smoke bombs at the Pride participants and burning a rainbow flag.
