Farmers' protests are spreading to more and more countries in Europe

Farmers in several European countries continue to actively express their dissatisfaction with agricultural policies. This time, French farmers are threatening to take over Paris, reports World of NAN with reference to inform.kz.

Recall, it all started with the bill, which was announced by the Dutch government. It is aimed at limiting emissions of nitrogen oxide and ammonia, which implies the reduction of livestock. Later, other countries joined the protests, where they cancelled subsidies for diesel fuel and also asked to reduce emissions.

In France, farmers have been blocking major motorways with their tractors and farm machinery for days. On Thursday, nearly 80 motorway junctions across the country were blocked by dozens of tractors and manure was dumped on the roads.

Farmers complain they are not getting a decent income for their labour. Pressure from rising prices, taxes and the introduction of "green regulation" is in play.

French intelligence agencies have warned the government that regional farmers' unions have called on their members to gather in Paris. The farmers' protest at the entrances to Europe's largest metropolis threatens to turn into a transport collapse in France. The wave of farmers' protests may be joined by those in Belgium, the Netherlands and Eastern European countries.
