3. Mass protest against RUK-US FTA (3.25)

According to several Korean reports between 15,000 and 20,000 people joined it. And - if I remember well - took over for the first time since years the area in front of the US embassy for a final protest rally!!

"On Sunday, about 10,000 South Korean farmers, workers and supporters rallied and marched in downtown Seoul, asking their government to stop the FTA talks.

"No to S. Korea-U.S. FTA," the protesters shouted, as they marched several blocks toward the presidential office Cheong Wa Dae.

The protesters sporadically clashed with riot police blocking their march near the U.S. Embassy. There were no reports of arrests or injuries.

Opponents said they will continue protests throughout this week's Seoul talks." (Yonhap)
