The controversial Ukrainian feminist movement FEMEN has staged a nude protest against the Euro 2012 championship in front of Warsaw's National Stadium. Within minutes, all four protesters, armed with fire extinguishers, were arrested.

The incident took place a few hours before the match between Poland and Greece on Friday. The women appeared in front of the stadium half-naked, with protest signs on their bodies, chanting vulgar slogans about the sporting event.

The FEMEN girls ran through crowds of fans, showering foam from fire extinguishers everywhere.­ FEMEN opposes Euro 2012 because of the fears that the tournament will lead to an increase in prostitution.

Earlier in May the infamous group attacked the Euro Cup, which is awarded to the winner of the European Football Championship, during its display in the Ukrainian city of Dnepropetrovsk ahead of the Euro 2012 kickoff. A similar incident took place on May 12 in Kiev, when the activists pounced on the trophy.

Formula 1 fans attending a Grand Prix cocktail reception in Montreal certainly got more than they bargained for, as riot police clashed with semi-naked students in the city streets, arresting 39 people. Thousands of men and women stripped to protest planned tuition hikes and embarrass the hosts of the Formula One Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal.

Protesters told reporters they were naked for a number of reasons:to show the government they have been transparent in their demands to freeze tuition fees, to garner more media attention to their cause, and to discourage police from handling them roughly. But despite the students baring all, riot police still used tear gas, pepper spray and batons to break up the crowds, eventually arresting nearly 40 people.

Still, blazing sirens, revving engines and hovering helicopters did nothing to dampen the protesters’ mood – the crowds dispersed only when it started to rain on their parade. Montreal police spokesperson Ian Lafreniere said most people were arrested because police had reason to believe they were preparing to commit crimes and damage property.

Since February, hundreds of protesters have been arrested and clashes have erupted sporadically as more than 165,000 students have refused to attend class and tens of thousands have taken part in nightly demonstrations.

Quebec Premier Jean Charest, whose popularity has plummeted over the crisis, had earlier expressed anger at the direct threats against the Grand Prix. “When we attack the Grand Prix, it’s not the Quebec government that people are assaulting, it’s all Quebecers,” Charest said. The protests and media attention have already put a dent in the global sporting event, which usually generates nearly $100 million in revenue for the city, but has lagged on ticket sales this year.

Jalur dalam protes: ‘Pelajar Kanada, berbogel dan keganasan pertembungan dengan polis’

Peminat Formula 1 yang menghadiri resepsi koktel Grand Prix di Montreal pasti mendapat lebih daripada mereka tawar menawar, polis rusuhan bertempur dengan separuh-bogel pelajar di jalan-jalan bandar, menahan 39 orang. Beribu-ribu lelaki dan wanita yang lucutkan pakaian untuk membantah kenaikan tuisyen terancang dan memalukan tuan rumah Grand Prix Formula 1 di Montreal Kanada.

Penunjuk perasaan kepada pemberita mereka telanjang bulat untuk beberapa sebab: untuk menunjukkan kerajaan mereka telah tidak telus dalam tuntutan mereka untuk membekukan yuran tuisyen, untuk menarik lebih banyak perhatian media kepada perjuangan mereka, dan kira-kira untuk menghalang polis dari mengendalikan mereka. Tetapi walaupun pelajar menutup semua, polis rusuhan masih menggunakan gas pemedih mata, semburan lada dan belantan untuk menyuraikan orang ramai, akhirnya menahan hampir 40 orang.

Namun, berkobar siren, revving enjin dan helikopter berlegar tidak berbuat apa-apa untuk melembabkan mood penunjuk perasaan - orang ramai bersurai hanya apabila ia mula hujan perarakan mereka.

Jurucakap polis Montreal, Ian Lafreniere berkata kebanyakan orang telah ditahan kerana pihak polis mempunyai sebab untuk mempercayai mereka telah bersedia untuk melakukan jenayah dan kerosakan harta benda.

Sejak Februari, beratus-ratus penunjuk perasaan telah ditangkap dan pertempuran telah tercetus sekali-sekala sebagai lebih daripada 165,000 pelajar telah menolak untuk menghadiri kelas dan berpuluh-puluh ribu orang telah mengambil bahagian dalam demonstrasi setiap malam.

Quebec Premier Jean Charest, yang populariti terus menjunam lebih daripada krisis ini, sebelum ini telah menyatakan kemarahan di ancaman langsung terhadap Grand Prix. "Apabila kita menyerang Grand Prix, ia bukan kerajaan Quebec bahawa orang yang menyerang, itu semua Quebecers," kata Charest.

Protes dan perhatian media telah meletakkan penyok dalam acara sukan global, yang biasanya menjana hampir $ 100 juta dalam hasil bagi bandar raya ini, tetapi telah ketinggalan pada jualan tiket tahun ini.
