Farmers prepare to confront Macron at the Paris Agricultural Exhibition. Dozens of tractors entered the French capital to protest against the high agricultural costs and the French government’s agricultural policy.
One of the tractors carried a banner that read: “Macron, you are sowing the seeds of the storm, be careful what you reap” The Paris Agricultural exhibition is a major annual event in France, attracting about 600,000 visitors over its nine-day session. The European Union had exempted Ukrainian food imports from customs duties in 2022 to support Kiev's economy.
