gr.euronews.com (Greek) —

France faces a fourth consecutive Saturday of protests over living costs and youth support, with unions and "yellow vests" mobilizing two days before a government social conference. Demonstrators demand wage increases, action against precarious work, and better public services, while criticizing police repression and protest route bans. Authorities have deployed 70,000 officers nationwide. Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu will meet unions Monday on wages and purchasing power. Investigations are underway into violence on both sides, including legal action against the Interior Minister.
