Farmers protesting a range of issues will drive their tractors around Rome in a major demonstration in the Italian capital next week, one of the leaders of the protest said after meeting police chiefs Monday.
"From Thursday the mobilization will begin. Our vehicles will converge on various collection points around the capital and next week there will be a big demonstration in Rome", said Danilo Calvani, one of the leaders of the protest and head of the 'Cra Agricoltori traditi' movement, at the end of a meeting at the Police Headquarters in Rome.
"We still have to establish the details," he added, "but we will probably also hold a procession with tractors."
