Reuters: French 'yellow vests' march through Paris, keeping pressure on Macron
PARIS (Reuters) - “Yellow vest” protesters marched through Paris and other French cities on Saturday on the 11th weekend of action against the government, suggesting President Emmanuel Macron has yet to defuse public opposition to some of his policies.
