2022 Europe inflation protests

Europe inflation protests are ongoing protests across Europe against the growing cost of living and inflation. The rise of prices has been attributed to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. The protests have been reported in France, Germany, Romania, and Czech Republic.

Energy prices have pushed eurozone inflation to a record 9.9%, making it more difficult for individuals to buy their needs. According to risk consultancy company Verisk Maplecroft, the war in Ukraine has "sharply raised the risk of civil unrest in Europe."
