La presse européenne n’a pas donné beaucoup de place à la manifestation populaire contre la pacte de Marrakech qui a paralysé le cœur de Bruxelles. Pourtant, il s’agit de la première révolte populaire contre un pacte qui veut notre mort comme peuple. Seuls les journalistes anglais du Daily Mail lui ont accordé l’importance qu’elle méritait. Ci-après un extrait de leur reportage.
Le dimanche 16 octobre, à l’appel des nationalistes flamands, près de dix mille personnes se sont rassemblées à Bruxelles pour manifester leur opposition au pacte mondial des Nations unies pour des migrations sûres, ordonnées et régulières. On remarquait dans le cortège des élus du Vlaams Belang comme Filip De Winter et des jeunes de la NV-A dont le part a quitté la coalition gouvernementale en raison de son opposition à la signature par la Belgique du pacte.
