French farmers clash with Macron over EU Mercosur Trade deal; cattle culled, meat burned | Watch

Hundreds of farmers and activists took to the streets in France, accusing President Emmanuel Macron of destroying domestic livestock through forced cattle culls while opening the market to cheaper Ukrainian and Brazilian chicken under the controversial Mercosur trade deal. Protesters warn the policy shift threatens French food sovereignty, rural livelihoods, and local agriculture, as anger mounts over imports replacing home-grown produce amid tightening environmental rules.
