Demonstration For Wage Increases And Respect For The Right To Strike

Flags of the different unions that called for the strike day are seen during a demonstration in Paris, 18 October 2022, after the CGT and FO unions called for a national strike for higher wages, and against the government's requisition of some strikers in the refineries to return 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)
