French farmers destroy shipments of Spanish and Moroccan tomatoes

French farmers intercepted trucks loaded with tomatoes from Spain and Morocco near the southern French city of Perpignon and damaged them.

Farmers searched for foreign trucks to destroy their cargo, protesting against imports affecting the prices of their local produce.

French farmers threw boxes of foreign tomatoes on the ground and completely destroyed them.

Extremist parties and right-wing media have used these events to promote their agenda, criticizing government policies that allow tomato imports from Morocco and Spain, saying they threaten local food security and harm the rural economy.

These acts of aggression pose a major challenge to Moroccan and Spanish exporters and have strained trade relations between countries.

Morocco and Spain are expected to take measures to deal with these protests, which could include strengthening highway security, increasing coordination to protect commercial goods and preventing the recurrence of such incidents.
