Chaos Cultivates As EU Gets Burnt In Fiery Dutch Farmer Protests

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 11, 20220

Dutch farmers have been protesting ever since the Netherlands, a member of the EU, has consented to its laws over the use of pollutants in EU countries. It was stated that the Netherlands had not complied with these 1991 accords and has been recently forced to slash on use of fertilisers which release greenhouse gases. Last month the Dutch cabinet announced a $22 Bn programme focusing on cutting nitrogen emissions down by 50% by the year 2020, with further requiring 70% or more reduction in emissions in some areas.

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 6, 20220

Scotland is a very proud part of the United Kingdom. They were annexed in 1652 by the English and have been part of England in the post-colonial United Kingdom. Today, the people of Scotland have been at odds with the British due to the control, dictation and administration London has over Edinburgh. Hence, in 2014, London gave Scotland a choice of freedom from England. Contrarily most Scottish voted no due to England's membership with E.U. However, this opinion changed with Britain's 'Brexit' dramatics. While the fiasco was going on, a poll showed 60% of the Scots wanted Britain. Consequently, the entirety of the UK wanted London not to leave EU eventually, the British were successful, and the UK left EU. This has stirred up controversy in Scotland ever since; combined with the ...

Agamapar ChadhaJuly 2, 20220

Sweden and, most importantly, Finland are the only E.U. not to join North Atlantic Treaty Organisation(N.A.T.O), constituting the U.S.A and other European countries. This is subject to change as both the countries come inches close to becoming part of N.A.T.O. after the Madrid summit on 29th June 2022. Finland achieved its independence from Russia in 1917. However, being at the border of a powerful state and losing a war resulted in losing 10% of their land. Finland opted for what war experts called ‘Finladisation’, i.e. opting to be neutral when bordered by a strong neighbour. The attack on Ukraine in Finland has changed its outlook. 62% of Fins have voted for joining N.A.T.O. in 2022, which had been 7% in 2017. Finland is primarily a key to this conflict if its membership in N.
