French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday, after talks with the government and intelligence service representatives in Paris, announced restrictions on nationwide protests planned for Saturday, October 24. According to him, authorities will only allow demonstrations organized by trade unions, while banning other gatherings. Deutschlandfunk ↗
Macron also accused organized far-left groups of being behind the violence on October 17 and of attempting to overthrow the republic. The president stated that union protests would be offered alternative routes if necessary. The measures are meant to respond to concerns about a repeat of riots, property damage and violence in several French cities. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
After the security meeting, the government wants to create a detailed overview of the events of October 17 and clarify how they unfolded. In connection with the unrest, French authorities recorded 2,500 detentions and 174 people held in custody. In Paris, investigations into the deaths of two men aged 59 and 48 are also ongoing.

In recent days, Macron also rejected foreign comments on the situation in France. He called them "unacceptable" and "stupid," declaring that some foreign leaders were using the events for their own election campaigns. Further developments will depend on how Saturday's demonstrations unfold and on whether the new restrictions reduce the risk of further violence. Die Zeit ↗
