Demonstration Of French Farmers Near Paris
French farmers are holding official agglomeration signs upside down as they block the A6 highway near Chilly-Mazarin, south of Paris, on January 31, 2024. They are continuing to maintain roadblocks on key highways into Paris for a third day, as 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 appear to ignore 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 fight on for improved pay, less red tape, and protection from foreign competition.
