Nope. The Wallonians are celebrating and say they were listened to.
Quote:
Paul Magnette, the socialist leader of Wallonia that represents 3.5 million Belgians, hailed a “people’s power” victory saying the new concessions had “achieved major gains for the Walloons and Europeans”.

“Wallonia is extremely pleased that our demands have been heard,” he said. “We always fought to have treaties that enhance social standards, environmental standards, and protect public services.

“What we got is important for the Walloons and for everyone. At stake is how we regulate the world we want to live in.”
