Angry farmers teamed up on Monday to block the Belgian-Dutch border, as demonstration leaders vowed to disrupt this year’s European elections in an escalation of anti-EU protests spreading across the continent.
Traffic between the Belgian city of Liege and Maastricht in the Netherlands was brought to a standstill in both directions as dozens of tractors from the two countries descended on the main highways across the frontier.
