Spanish term
acciones de fuerza
Spanish to English
Other
Government / Politics
protest action
There must be an accurate rendering of this in the following context, but it escapes me. Its like "demonstrations", only stronger.
un Gobierno debilitado que, para tratar de evitar las acciones de fuerza en el país, les haga más concesiones
or
En algún momento Obama tendrá que enfrentar la realidad: ellos sólo entienden de acciones de fuerza. El resto es conversa de salón.
Thanks for your help
