CGT General Secretary Philippe Martinez talks with Fabien Roussel, national secretary of the French Communist Party (PCF), during a demonstration in Paris, 18 October 2022, after the CGT and FO unions called for a national strike for higher wages, and against government requisitioning to force some strikers at refineries back to work. In support, unions in other industries and the public sector called for strike action and denounced soaring energy prices and overall inflation on the cost of living. (Photo by Samuel Boivin/NurPhoto)
