German Farmers’ President Pledges Unprecedented Mass Action In Protest At The Government's 'War On Agriculture'

Civil unrest is brewing in Germany as farmers threaten action that could bring down the fragile coalition that rules the country. The threatened protests are a response to the government’s plan to end tax breaks for agriculture, with the German Farmers’ Association (BvD) President  Joachim Rukwied stating that enactment of such a policy amounted to a “declaration of war.” He is now threatening mass protests at a time when the government’s approval rating is at a record low and over two-thirds of Germans say the current government should resign.

“We will not accept this,” Herr Rukwied said in Berlin on Monday after thousands of German farmers blockaded roads around the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin to protest the left-wing government's plans to remove tax privileges and subsidies which farmers currently benefit from.  "If the federal government did not withdraw the unreasonable proposals without replacement, farmers would make sure there was “a very hot January” with further protests planned. from Jan. 8. We will be everywhere in a way that the country has never experienced before,” the farmers' president warned.

The actions are similar to Dutch farmers protests against crackpot new regulations imposed by the EU, which included plans to seize farms idenified as  contributing to climate change by releasing nitrogen into the atmosphere. The Dutch farmers' actions were a factor in the instability of the a pro - EU government which collapsed earlier this year, and the rise of populist parties whose campaign rhetoric gives the impression they are willing to listen to the concerns of the people rather than aligning policy with the agendas of a financial elite. Last month, Geert Wilders’ victory following snap elections in the Netherlands sent shockwaves through the political foundations of The European Union.

Germany’s hotchpotch coalition government made up of the far - left SDP, the loony left Greens and the globalist, pro EU Free Democrats wrongfooted the  farmers by annnouncing their that tax breaks were ending for agriculture during Advent as political activity wound down towards the Christmas holiday , but the respomse was instant and mass protests ensued, as, in common with their Dutch colleagues, German farmers perceived that they are being made a target of an anti - capitalist agenda. The government believes it can save up to €900 million a year by ending the tax breaks, even as it plans to funnel €36 billion towards migrants in the same year.

In response to the penalties imposed on farmers, 3,000 people attended the protest on Monday, many of them rolling into the demonstration near the Brandenburg Gate on tractors.

When Agriculture Minister Cem Özdemir attempted to speak at the farmers’ rally, his speech was interrupted at several points, with the crowd chanting, “Traffic lights out,” in reference to the ruling “traffic light” government to which Özdemir belongs.
