Farmers in France and Poland are taking to the streets to protest against strict farming regulations and rising costs. In Poland, farmers are blockading major roads to protest against Ukrainian farm imports that they claim are harming their revenues. The Polish prime minister has promised to negotiate a deal with Ukraine to regulate the transit and export of agricultural products. In France, farmers are expressing their dissatisfaction with President Macron's anti-inflation policies, arguing that they are undermining their efforts to secure fair prices for their products.
The French government is concerned that the grievances of farmers could contribute to the success of far-right parties in the upcoming European parliament elections. The rise of the far right has been a growing trend in many European countries, fueled by dissatisfaction with mainstream politics. The government fears that farmers, who have traditionally supported right-wing parties, may turn to the far right if their demands are not met. This is seen as a potential challenge for President Macron's centrist party, which is already facing declining popularity.
