Madrid (EFE)-. Several hundred protesters have already gathered in the Atocha roundabout in Madrid to participate in the march in defense of the countryside, called by the SOS Rural citizen platform, in order to claim and value the productive and social activity of the rural environment.
The demonstrators, coming from different parts of the country, carry banners in defense of different groups, such as farmers, ranchers, hunters or transporters, and continue to arrive at the place of the call.
They also chant slogans in defense of the countryside and against the “demanding” community and national policies.
In addition, several dozen trucks are sounding their horns along the Paseo del Prado, while several tractors are making the journey to Cibeles.
After reading fifteen communiqués by various associations at the start of the rally, they will undertake a march towards the Cibeles-Recoletos axis around 1:00 p.m. that will end with a musical performance by singer Nyno Vargas.
