Chaos in Brussels as farmer protesters clash with police in front of European Parliament

Brussels saw a chaotic farmer's protest on Thursday as demonstrators clashed with police, throwing stones and objects in front of the European Parliament. The protest coincided with the Ukraine financing summit, where EU leaders were meeting to discuss financial aid for Ukraine. Belgian Prime Minister Alexander De Croo acknowledged the farmers' concerns and said “We need to be able to discuss in the (European) Council on this topic, because the concerns that they have are partly legitimate. The climate transition is a key priority for our societies. We need to make sure that our farmers can be a partner in this.” The protest caused major traffic disruptions, with thousands of tractors blocking major roads and streets in the Belgian capital. The farmers are demanding more support from the European Union, as they face rising costs and taxes.
