The chairmen of the Boerenbond and the Groene Kring entered into discussions with the initiators in Zeebrugge on Friday about what has been discussed at Flemish level. That is why the initiators have decided to stop their action in Zeebrugge. In the meantime, they are calling in groups on WhatsApp for the blockages to be lifted. The organizers therefore ask approaching columns to turn around.
According to the governor, it remains to be seen whether all activists on the ground will follow that plan. Extra police will be coming to escort the trucks. Farmers at the Môle clean up after 72 hours. “But if necessary, we will return.” There is also talk of continuing to take action in other places. In the meantime, the first trucks have been able to enter the port.
