Interruption of the French President’s speech in The Hague
Opponents of the pension system reforms in France interrupted President Emmanuel Macron’s speech in the Netherlands on Wednesday, preventing him from discussing his vision for the future of Europe.
This happened while the French President was delivering a speech in The Hague, and some attendees accused him of trying to increase the retirement age in the country through undemocratic actions.
Macron’s pension system reforms have sparked widespread protests and strikes in France, and his attempt to use special constitutional powers to implement this bill without parliamentary voting has further angered critics in the country.
