Police have detained more than 60 demonstrators during protests in France, officials said. sky news. Workers marched through France outraged by the increase in the retirement age of President Emmanuel Macron this Monday, as police fired tear gas in Paris and the city of Nantes during Labor Day demonstrations across Europe, Reuters reported.

French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin said most of the May Day protests were peaceful, but in Paris, Lyon and Nantes, “the police faced extremely violent demonstrators who came with one goal: to kill policemen and attack other people’s property. This violence must be unequivocally condemned.”

Unions across the country were expecting hundreds and thousands of people to come out to show support on the first Labor Day holiday since the Pension Law Amendment, which raised the retirement age from 62 to 64.
