“No one would consider that there is a decline if after the demonstration the government said” we reopen the discussion “”
Marisol Touraine, who denounces the risk of “nourishing populism of the far right” and the government “totem” of the 64 years, advocates compromise and negotiation with the various social partners. “To say that all the unions are opposed, it is not very satisfactory,” she justified.
