Manifestation des métallos devant le parlement européen à Strasbourg

Belgian steel workers are set to demonstrate outside the European parliament in Strasbourg on Wednesday and a number of MEPs are set to join them. The protest follows a rally on January 29 after an announcement by Arcelor Mittal, the world''s biggest steelmaker, that the company will shut down a plant and six finishing lines in the Liege region due to declining steel demand in Europe, resulting in 1,300 job losses. -FRPUE, BERTBF and other cover TBC
