During the day hundreds of citizens and visitors to Sofia learned about Falun Dafa and expressed their support. Hundreds of signatures against the persecution of Falun Gong in China and in support of the Divine Performing Arts Spectacular in Sofia next year were gathered. Hundreds of passersby received informational flyers and learned about Falun Gong and the persecution by the Chinese Communist Party. People were shocked by the persecution that extends beyond China in the form of pressure over Bulgarian authorities and attempts to interfere with numerous initiatives aiming to clarify the truth about Falun Gong.
