We will remind, on November 17 in France began rallies against rising fuel prices. Every weekend protesters take to the barricades: burn cars, block roads and break Windows. The French are unhappy with not only higher prices but also the current government. They urged President Emmanuel Macron to resign, and stated that “people are evil”, they are “not milking cows”.
November 24, the police used tear gas and water cannons to disperse the demonstrators. Macron denounced the clashes of protesters with the police. He said that the riots in Paris have nothing to do with the peaceful protest and promised that the perpetrators will be brought to justice.
