Pension reform: the route of the demonstration on Tuesday June 6

Since January 2023, unions and citizens have been mobilizing against the proposed pension reform, and in particular against the extension of the legal retirement age. This text, supported by the government and largely disapproved by the French people, is facing strong opposition, organized by the unions. Although the bill was passed by force using the 49.3, the demonstrators have not yet given up, while the executive wishes to bring this reform into force on September 1, 2023.
