French grassroots movement challenges executive power in name of 'democracy' and 'freedom of speech'
FRANCE24, 29 Mar 2023
Fresh clashes erupted in France Tuesday between protesters and police as tens of thousands took to the streets to show their anger against President Emmanuel Macron's pension reform that has sparked a major domestic crisis. The day of nationwide protests and strikes called by unions is the tenth since mid-January against the law, which includes raising the retirement age from 62 to 64. For more on the French retirement overhaul showdown, FRANCE 24 is joined by Bruno Cautrès, CNRS-affiliated Research Fellow at CEVIPOF-Sciences Po.
