Democracy is made by the rich for the rich – Fadi Lama
Published 8 Oct, 2026 17:35The European Union is hit with major protests – the Spanish government collapses over a housing crisis, French students clash with police over education underfunding, in Germany people protest against militarization and a dire economic situation. What would you do as the leader of any of those countries? Go to Ukraine and pledge more money like Friedrich Merz did? Or test a new missile like Emmanuel Macron? RT’s Europe correspondent Chay Bowes joins Rick Sanchez for a conversation mocking these poor elites.
