Description
"If the question is whether we want to bring the French economy to its knees, the answer is yes," says Emmanuel Lépine, secretary general of the hardline French labor union CGT's chemical industries branch. Representatives of several CGT federations are calling for a step up in the mobilization against French President Emmanuel Macron's pension reform and for "bringing France to a standstill" on March 7. Strikes and protests continue over Macron's plan, which includes raising the age of retirement from 62 to 64. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
