Farmers block roads in Spain and Poland over EU policies

 

Farmers in Spain and Poland have staged tractor protests in several cities and border crossings on Friday, as part of a wave of demonstrations across Europe against EU farming policies. The farmers are demanding measures to address rising production costs, falling profits and unfair competition from non-EU countries, especially Ukraine.

The protests have disrupted traffic and caused delays in some areas, as hundreds of tractors blocked highways and city streets. The farmers have also expressed their opposition to the EU's Green Deal, which aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and pesticide use, arguing that it will harm their crops and food security.

The protests follow similar actions by farmers in France, Greece, Hungary and Belgium in recent weeks, who have also voiced their dissatisfaction with the EU's agricultural policies and market conditions. The farmers are calling for more support and protection from the EU, as well as fair prices for their products.
