Prominent climate activist Greta Thunberg, alongside Extinction Rebellion and United for Climate Justice members, was detained during a protest in Brussels. The demonstration aimed to pressure the European Union to eliminate fossil fuel subsidies by 2025, a promise made by Ursula von der Leyen.
Despite the EU's annual expenditure of 100 billion euros on these subsidies, activists demand a clear timeline and methodology for their removal. The protest took place near key EU institutions, emphasizing the urgency of action.
Over 100 participants were arrested but were released later. Thunberg, known for her influential climate movement Fridays for Future, has been temporarily detained multiple times.
Her activism continues to draw attention to the pressing need for environmental reforms, underscoring the global demand for sustainable policies.
