Farmers across Germany 🇩🇪 on Monday 8th Jan. continued protests against the gov’t’s economic and agricultural policy plans that would see reduced subsidies for the sector. They blocked roads and highways with tractors throughout the country. The plans included subsidy cuts for fuel usage by farmers and tax breaks for farming vehicles. Germany’s 2024 budget plans include significant cuts and limitations to make up for a financing hole worth tens of billions of euros shortly after the constitutional court ruled that a re-allocation of emergency Covid-19 funds to the current budget was unlawful. There is a major structural issue in that German famers often can’t pass on higher production costs as they do not influence product prices. This forces them to ramp up production and endangers small businesses. 🇩🇪 Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck warns the farmers’ protest could be exploited by far-right groups. Alternative for Germany (AfD Party) criticised Habeck’s comments. Deutsche Bahn’s operations are expected to be disrupted starting Wednesday due to a planned strike. Highways were blocked due to protests and blockades will continue in coming days as farmers are camping out in Berlin. In Berlin, tractors blasted their horns and blocked the main avenue leading to the Brandenburg Gate . Police said roads and highway slip roads were blocked in multiple locations nationwide, including several border crossings with France. Video Sources from : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
