Demonstration Of French Farmers Near Paris
French gendarmes are waiting in Centaure, the new armored vehicles of the French National Gendarmerie, in front of the Rungis market, south of Paris, on January 31, 2024, as French farmers are maintaining roadblocks on key highways into Paris for a third day. This is part of nationwide protests called by several farmers' unions over pay, tax, and regulations. Convoys of tractors are edging closer to Paris, Lyon, and other strategic locations in France on January 31, as thousands of protesting farmers seem to be ignoring warnings of police intervention if they cross red lines laid down by the government. Farmers' unions, unimpressed by concessions offered by President Emmanuel Macron's government, are encouraging their members to continue fighting for improved pay, less red tape, and protection from foreign competition.
