Victoriei Square, blocked by protesters on Sunday evening

Protesters in Bucharest blocked on Sunday evening the access into Victoriei Square, coming from Kiseleff and Aviatorilor boulevards. 

Approximately 3,000 protesters gathered in front of the Government headquarters to voice their discontent with the current government, after several civic organizations announced the organization of the "Red Code for GEO [Government Emergency Ordinance]" event on Facebook. 

The protesters flied the Romanian and European Union flags and carried banners reading "Liviu's and Viorica's mathematics: thousands, tens of thousands = 73 + 1," "We want government's resignation, dissolution of Parliament, early elections, and without ordinances! Don't favour offenders in public offices!," "On the street we are united." They also had vuvuleas and chanted "PSD [Social Democratic Party], Red Plague," "Resignation, resignation." 

The gendarmers too were present in Victoriei Square.
