Large protests are taking place across Europe with thousands of people flooding the streets of national capitals.
There were huge demonstrations in Germany with protestors voicing opposition to Chancellor Olaf Scholz. They demanded sanctions against Russia be lifted chanting ‘Nordstream’. Germany has been hit hard by the sanctions as the country, like many in the EU, is heavily reliant on Russian gas as domestic coal mines were shut down by green policies.
