Belgium is expected to be “paralyzed” on Wednesday due to a general union strike. The workers are demanding wage increases, but also reductions in energy prices.

The planned protests will cause major traffic problems, while there will also be problems with public transport.

At Brussels airport, 40% of flights have already been canceled for precautionary reasons, but it will be extremely difficult to get to the airports.

Mobilizations are expected to take place outside supermarkets and shops, many of which will not be open.

Postal services will be interrupted, while police stations will also be understaffed.

As for schools, they will remain open, but teachers may choose to strike.
