The more than 300 demonstrations convened across France have focused on this Thursday 3.5 million peopleaccording to union data, which means tying the record of March 7, although the government figures are more modest, just over a million, slightly lower than other days.
In many cities, except Paris, the demonstrations turned into riots, such as Rennes, Nantes, Bordeaux or Lorient, where 457 people have been arrested and 441 officers have been injuredaccording to data provided this Friday by French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin.
The demonstration this Thursday against the pension reform Paris is affected by hardiness collisions between protesters and law enforcement. Unlike on other occasions, the violent people acted before the official leader of the union demonstration arrived, which, apart from the riots, proceeded normally, but along a route marked by the ashes of small fires, cracked shop windows and smashed street furniture . and with the smoke from the tear gas used by the police still in the area.
Darmanin pointed out “all the way to the left” as responsible for the acts of violence that have taken place outside the marches organized by the trade unions against government reform. “The extreme left wants to attack the Republic and a message of condemnation must be sent,” stressed the minister, acknowledging that the unions have already denounced the violence, but not the entire opposition.
The labor unions The French are not giving a truce in their social pulse against the pension reform of the president, Emmanuel Macron, the main recipient of criticism during the ninth day of mobilization.
The unions are determined to continue the push against a reform that delays two years, to 64, the minimum retirement age, and have declared another protest day for 28 the following day, also ensuring that others will come later some threatens to entrench the situation.
The president maintains his position, as this measure is inevitable for public finances damaged by the covid crisis and the war in Ukraine.
The next few days seem decisive in clarifying the outcome of a crisis that does not seem to end with the approval of the text by the legislature, which conflicts with Macron’s plans to continue with his political agenda.
