Dozens of Tractors Storm Paris as Farmers Launch New Protest

The first vehicles arrived early in the morning escorted by riot police, with more than 300 tractors expected, according to police.

The rally is reportedly aimed at protesting the upcoming Mercosur agreement, set to be signed on Friday.

"Many things have not been resolved for two years. We have Mercosur, overlapping regulations from Europe and France... And then the prices — it’s not working at all. We’re all in the red, that’s why we’re here. Prices are just not right," one of the farmers told Sputnik Africa.
