Half a million protest in Paris against Macron pension reform

Half a million people were protesting Tuesday in Paris alone in nationwide rallies and strikes against pension reform backed by French President Emmanuel Macron, the leading CGT union said.

The figure of 500,000 people is higher than that of 400,000 given for Paris by the CGT on the previous day of rallies on January 19. Then, the interior ministry had given a much lower figure of 80,000.
