Just a few days ago Spain is still in riot mode. The next protest is going to be on 31th October apparently.
This is gonna add fuel to the fire, and as I lived in East Asia (Hong Kong to be specific) I'm kind of curious why it all happened around the eurozone lately.
France, Albania, Belgium, Spain, Greece, UK and Serbia recently (although it is not eurozone but closely related anyway as part of the great Balkans). What's left? Germany and Poland I guess?
Anyhow it really reminds me of the First World War
Spain is not in riot mode and the two violent riots are not related to political protests nor have political goals.
Failure of 'third way' liberalisation politics explain some of it. Serbia it's way more complicated than that though.
I can't see why you would think a train crash would "add fuel to the fire"
because it is symptom of Sanchez government, two high speed train crashes within a year, his minister not resigning, throw there high living expenses, no wonder Spaniards protest
Well said.
