An estimated 150 students held a demonstration in Brussels to denounce the high cost of living and to urge the Belgian government to provide greater support. "We came to demonstrate because it is becoming very difficult to be a student, to be able to pay for our studies," Emilia Hoxhaj, president of the Federation of Francophone Students (FEF) and a student at the University of Mons, told Xinhua news agency on Thursday.
