Around 150 members of the Flemish People's Movement (VVB), a Belgian organisation advocating for Dutch-speaking rights, staged a demonstration outside Saint-Pierre Hospital in Brussels, demanding that the city's hospitals provide care in Dutch and offer adequate language training to staff. Activists dressed as doctors and patients acted out scenes in which medical staff addressed patients exclusively in French, highlighting what the VVB says are hundreds of complaints received through its language reporting hotline about Dutch-speaking patients being turned away or forced to communicate in French. The group warned that protests will continue and that legal action may follow unless hospitals engage in dialogue and improve services, noting that bilingual cities like Brussels are legally obliged to accommodate both language communities.
