BRUSSELS (AP) — Trade unions and thousands of disgruntled workers are demonstrating in the Belgian capital to protest the threat of massive layoffs in a state-of-the-art Brussels car factory and other key industries. The trigger for Monday’s protest was the announcement by the German carmaker Audi that it would phase out production at its Forest plant in southern Brussels. That would threaten the jobs of 3,000 staffers, many of whom are experts in electronic vehicle production.
