Several hundred truck drivers took part in a large demonstration against price increase in the center of Berlin. About 540 trucks and 60 tractors, more than a hundred cars and mobile homes blocked the 17th of June street, leading from the Brandenburg Gate to the Victory Column. This is reported by our correspondent from the scene. Against the background of farmers’ protests over the removal of government subsidies for diesel fuel, as well as preferential taxation of vehicles used in forestry and agriculture, workers in the transportation industry have also expressed dissatisfaction with the rising taxes.
