Protest In Paris

Philippe Martinez, secretary general of the CGT (General Confederation of Labor) is present in the trade union procession during a new demonstration in Paris as part of a national day of strikes and protests called by the trade unions concerning the pension reform project, on March 11, 2023. The reform proposed by the government includes raising the minimum retirement age from 62 to 64 and increasing the number of years of contributions to receive a full pension. The unions have promised to keep up the pressure on the government, with an upcoming day of mass demonstrations, and some have even said they will continue with unlimited strikes.
