protest

Hundreds of Brussels residents took to the streets Monday to protest as the failure of squabbling politicians to form a regional city government topped a previous 541-day Belgian record.

In 2022, he was arrested in connection with protests by a group of filmmakers but was released nearly seven months later.

The city council said it had suspended collections across the city for the day due to the "mass pickets and protests" across its depots.

The list of demands in the petition echoed the protest chants of 2019.

“This case began with a protest ... it should never have ended here, in a federal courtroom.”
