Trump Faces Flag-Burning Protests in Switzerland as Swiss Dislike Mounts
Ahead of President Donald Trump’s visit to Switzerland for the World Economic Forum, protesters in Zurich voiced their opposition with demonstrations. Protesters carried signs such as “Trump not welcome” and burned a U.S. flag. The demonstrations, which targeted American businesses, escalated, leading to the use of water cannons, tear gas, and rubber bullets by police and resulting in injuries. The protests were fueled by Trump’s controversial international policies, including his musings about Greenland and conflicts with leaders like French President Emmanuel Macron.
