THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES Around 7000 protesters marched in east Belgian city of Liege as European finance ministers began gathering to discuss the economic impact of the US terror attacks. With police patrolling in boats and helicopters near the city center, riot police with water canons were visible, and all roads to the site of the meeting were blocked. The marchers, from around the 15-nation EU and Eastern Europe, demanded that the finance ministers make jobs and social welfare their major priority, said Waltraud Etz from the European Trade Union Confederation. The demonstrators said that about 200,000 jobs had been lost in Europe since January and urged the finance ministers to tackle that problem as well. Banners were spotted which read, "The euro is coming but not the jobs" and "End horror of capitalism."
