The protests in Paris and throughout France seek

The protesters blocked the roads, established fires and found volley volumes of police gases from the police on Wednesday in Paris and other parts of France, looking for pressure on President Emmanuel Macron when trying to give his new prime minister a baptism of fire.

The Interior Minister announced almost 200 arrests in the early hours of the planned day of the protests nationwide.

Although being below its self -demolated intention of “blocking everything”, the protest movement that began online and gathered steam during the summer caused generalized interruptions, challenging an exceptional deployment of 80,000 police officers who broke barricades and quickly arrested.

Interior Minister Bruno Retilleau said that a bus on the western city of Rennes caught fire and that damage to an electric line blocked the trains in a line in the southwest. He claimed that the protesters tried to create “an insurrection climate.”

The protesters, angry with Macron for their leadership and austerity policies, had planned to interrupt the activity of all kinds throughout the country.

Two days after François Bayrou was expelled as a prime minister in a parliamentary vote of non -trust and then replaced Tuesday by Sébastien Lecornuthousands of protesters responded to online calls to interrupt the country.

The “Blocans Tout” movement (blocking everything) had gathered impulse in social networks and in chats encrypted during the summer. His call to a day of blockages, strikes, demonstrations and other acts of protest was like Macron, one of the main objectives of the movement, installed Lecornu as his fourth prime minister in just 12 months.

The movement, which has grown virally without a clear identified leadership, has a wide range of demands, many of the belt control plans disputed that Bayrou had defended before his expulsion, as well as broader complaints about inequality.

Online calls for attacks, boycott, blockages and other forms of protest on Wednesday were accompanied with appeals to avoid violence.

The spontaneity of “blocking everything” recalls “Yellow vest“Protest movement that shook Macron’s first mandate.
