VOICED: Europa contra la austeridad

On February 29, unions across Europe protested against austerity policies, criticizing them as socially unjust and economically ineffective. Despite widespread discontent, participation in protests was lower than expected. In Spain, students expressed anger over austerity measures, with youth unemployment at a record high. The protests, marked by a unified slogan 'too much is too much', highlighted the burden on workers and the general public's frustration. However, the turnout was less than anticipated, even in Athens, where a concert against austerity drew fewer than a thousand people.
