Show of force by farmers in Brussels: 1000 tractors in front of the European Parliament to demand aid for the agricultural sector.
It is a show of force from farmers in Brussels.
A thousand tractors entered the city, several streets were blocked and a rally was held at Place du Luxembourg, in front of the European Parliament.
Angry farmers put pressure on the day of the EU summit on Ukraine.
The agricultural crisis is on the agenda, Emmanuel Macron must meet with Ursula von der Leyen and, according to the Élysée, the “future of European agriculture” is in question.
A few hours earlier, French and Belgian farmers had blocked a crossing point between France and Belgium to protest against free trade agreements and “distortion of competition”.
The demonstrators say they hope for “very strong announcements” at the end of the European summit.
