Paris, France

Aus der Quelle

France will deploy about 70,000 police nationwide and some of Paris' major museums will close Saturday as the country braces for a fresh wave of protests after looting and unrest erupted on the sidelines of demonstrations a week ago. Protests by high school students over learning conditions sparked a movement that has since spread nationwide, fuelled by broader anger over the rising cost of living.
