In Warsaw, protesting farmers burn garbage, tires and reflective vests. In particular, farmers oppose the import of food from Ukraine.
Warsaw authorities say there are serious traffic problems in the capital. “Our goal is to meet with Prime Minister Donald Tusk. We elected this government to defend our interests, including in the European Parliament. We hope that he will finally notice us,” said one of the protesters. The organizers talk about ten thousand protest participants, but clarify that there could be more.
