Headline: Farmers Continue To Protest In Brussels

Caption:

For the 3rd time since the beginning of the year, farmers are demonstrating today in the Belgian capital. On the sidelines of a European Council meeting on agriculture and fisheries, they came to demand an end to free-trade agreements, and better prices for buying and selling their products.

There were a few incidents, with egg-throwing, firecrackers and straw fires on one side, and water cannon and tear gas on the other
