‘No Kings’ sparks protests in Europe

Marches are held in solidarity with the “No to Kings” movement.

With thousands of “No to Kings” protests expected Saturday across the country — and more than 160 here in Massachusetts — citizens in other countries have joined the marches.

The March 28 crowd is expected to be larger than any previous “No Kings” protest — and the largest in U.S. history, organizers predict — with more than 3,000 protests planned across the country. Massachusetts has the second-largest No Kings protest events scheduled, after California, according to a No Kings spokesperson.

Here are some pictures of protests in France, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands.
