More “protests” that look like riots broke out today in several regions throughout Europe as the socialists and communists take advantage of the street antagonisms and looting opportunists.
Areas throughout France, Albania, Spain and Italy are seeing some of the most consequential street battles with police and rioters. CBS reported a few hours ago that more than 1,000 people have been arrested in France so far today.
FRANCE – Nearly 1,000 people were arrested in nationwide protests in France, Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said Saturday, after demonstrations over the high cost of living and the country’s education system earlier in the day remained largely peaceful.
Nuñez said the number of arrests is expected to rise significantly. He said marches “passed off well” in cities, but police officers found themselves confronted with “an extremely elevated level of violence” from “ultra-left” groups later in the day. Nuñez said some shops and businesses had been looted, but “the scale was far smaller” than a week earlier, when some 3,000 businesses were damaged or looted.
