The spread of yellow vest protests is surly something to keep an eye on. Stories of protests across Europe turning into yellow vest rallies has been a constant phenomenon over the last two years. The reception of this though, has varied drastically. In Russia for example, the policing of sudden yellow vest demonstrations was described as “heavy handed” with, allegedly, hundreds of demonstrators arrested in a single day in Saint Petersburg. Developments are building and will likely boil over into something dangerous soon.
