VIDEO: Farmers in Germany Continue to Block Major Highways
Edita
Farmers in Germany are continuing to block the country's main highways, with some roads periodically filled with manure. Protests in Berlin and Stuttgart are intensifying hour by hour. Farmers are shutting down major highways, one of which is already flooded with animal waste. Among other actions, they continue to bring agricultural machinery to close traffic. Similar protests are also escalating in other EU countries.
Farmers are dissatisfied with the policies of the authorities, which have led to rising fuel prices and taxes, while their incomes are regularly declining due to product pricing, monopolies, and excise duties.
