“Italy’s Di Maio at the meeting with the yellow vests”
“Italy’s deputy prime minister Luigi Di Maio has traveled to France to stand side by side with the protest movement Yellow vests and its aspiring Meps.”
“He has previously voiced its support and offered help to the French protest movement and criticised the neighbouring country’s government. On Tuesday was Di Maio in Paris, where he met Christophe Chalencon, who has taken on a leadership role for the Yellow vests, as well as the persons who now stand in the EUROPEAN elections under the movement banner.”
“Italy’s second deputy prime minister, Matteo Salvini, who leads the xenophobic northern league, has also voiced its support for the movement.”
“It began as a protest against raising the fuel tax in France to a wider missnöjesdemonstration against president Emmanuel Macron and his government. The news that the set-up in the european Parliament brought, however, critical voices-even within the movement, from those who believe it should stand outside of politics.”
“in The last few weeks the protests have also led to clashes with police and vandalism. At the side of this road blocked by protesters in several cities.”
“On Tuesday, said the French parliament’s lower house by a large majority, yes to a new law that gives the police and security forces a mandate to ban suspected perpetrators of violence from participating in demonstrations. Stricter punishment for those who masquerades are also proposed.”
“Critics believe that the proposal is contrary to constitutionally guaranteed rights. The proposal must now pass the upper house of parliament and its constitutional affairs committee.”
“the Yellow vests (Gilets jaunes) is a loose movement that was originally formed in protest against raising the tax on gasoline and diesel. The protests have since grown to include a more general dissatisfaction with president Emmanuel Macron and his economic policies.”

Over 260 people were injured, including several police officers, and over 400 were arrested.
