Tens of thousands protest in Brussels over cost of living

브뤼셀에서 생계비 문제로 수만명 시위 70 to 80-thousand Belgian workers took to the streets of Brussels on Monday, calling on the government to handle skyrocketing living costs. The protests saw transport systems come close to a standstill,... as demonstrators held strikes at Brussels Airport, forcing the cancellation of all departing flights, whilst also halting bus services nationwide. The protests follow an inflation spike of 9-percent in June for the country, as Russia's invasion of Ukraine impacted supplies. Meanwhile, the Belgian Prime Minister said Belgian workers are faring better than their EU counterparts due to their wages being indexed to inflation. #cost_of_living #Brussels #Belgium 📣 Arirang News(Facebook) :   / arirangtvnews   📣 Arirang News(Twitter) :   / arirangtvnews   📣 News Center(YouTube) :    / newscenter_arirangtv   2022-06-21, 08:00 (KST)
