In Rome, thousands converged on the central square to protest the killing of Floyd and racial discrimination.
In Budapest, thousands of demonstrators staged a sit-in outside the US embassy in response to the “Black Lives Matter” campaign.
Around 3,000 people gathered in front of the US embassy in Madrid repeating Floyd's last words "I can't breathe", and chanting "No peace without justice".
Similar demonstrations also took place in the Netherlands, Belgium, and the UK.
