A wave of peasant anger is being set off in the land of Europe, the roar of angry tractors echoes through the fields of France, roads are blocked, and the fire of ** spreads throughout Europe. This is not an ordinary demonstration, but a wave of unprecedented scale caused by disputes over Ukrainian agricultural products.
In the idyllic scenery around Paris, the peasants pushed the tractors in their hearts and threw themselves into a huge ** operation without hesitation. The two major agricultural unions worked together to announce on January 28 that, against the backdrop of the dumping of Ukrainian agricultural products, the main thoroughfares surrounding the city of Paris had become a "siege of Paris" for peasants, and the craze had spread to almost every corner of French farmland.
The Paris police issued a statement on February 1 announcing that farmers were trying to occupy the Longis food market in the south of Paris. The tractor became a symbol of the war, and the anger of the peasants in the streets of Paris shouted slogans to protect local agriculture, and their anger was like a burning flame that could not be extinguished.
The flames in France quickly spread to other European countries, and farmers in Germany, Belgium, Poland, Romania and other countries also joined the action. The tractor convoy occupied not only Paris, but also important French cities such as Lyon and Toulouse. On the European continent, the peasants are no longer separated by borders, and they use the power of solidarity to express their dissatisfaction with unfairness.
* The core reason is the dumping of Ukrainian agricultural products on the European market. The low price of agricultural products in Ukraine has put European farmers under serious competitive pressure. It's not just a battle for market share, it's a cry for fair competition, with farmers angrily asking why the EU is condoning Ukrainian products.
In order to maintain social order, ** took tough measures, and the Ministry of the Interior mobilized 150,000 military and police, deployed military police armored vehicles. However, this tough response has sparked a larger-scale upbringing, with farmers increasingly angry and demanding that they stand on their side and protect local agriculture from outside competition.
Speaking during his visit to Sweden, France's Macron said that Ukrainian agricultural products were given special preferential treatment, but called on Europeans to be "brave" and unite in support of Ukraine. However, there are divisions within the European Union, and the welfare policy for Ukrainian refugees has become a point of contention. Some countries have tended to cut benefits for consistency, raising questions about the EU's decision-making.
European countries** face extremely difficult choices and need to maintain international cooperation while safeguarding the interests of farmers. Farmers' anger could have far-reaching implications for Europe's agricultural policy, and countries need to respond cautiously to avoid social unrest and an exacerbated economic crisis. The development of the event will closely monitor decision-making within the EU and aid to Ukraine, which is not just a confrontation between farmers and Ukraine, but a crucial battle for the future direction of Europe's development.
