Dozens of tractors rolled into Place du Luxembourg in Brussels on Wednesday as farmers protested a potential trade deal between the European Union and South America's Mercosur bloc. Footage showed streets blocked by tractors, with protesters lighting fires in barrels while police stood by. Demonstrators warned that cheaper imports could threaten their livelihoods as EU leaders prepare to vote on approving the agreement.
