Farmers Block Roads In Germany In Protest Against Subsidy Cuts, Heat On Scholz Government

German farmers initiated a week-long nationwide protest by blocking roads with tractors, protesting against proposed agricultural subsidy cuts. Tractor convoys, adorned with banners reading “No farmers, no food, no future,“ caused traffic jams across the country. Farmers, fearing bankruptcy due to the end of tax breaks, vowed to block major routes. The protests coincide with a train drivers’ strike, potentially disrupting roads and railways. Despite last-minute government modifications to subsidy cuts, farmers, led by Joachim Rukwied, head of the German farmers’ association DBV, persisted with protests, urging public support while cautioning against far-right exploitation of the situation. #germany #farmerprotest #germanprotest #farmersprotest #farmers #worldnews n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.
