France needs to 'go through a healing period' after weeks of sometimes violent street protests against plans to raise the retirement age, Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne said, though she offered no clear path out of the political turmoil.
Protesters hold flags of French labour unions as they walk on a country road in Beauvoir towards the Mont Saint-Michel to block the access to the renowned tourist site during a demonstration against French government's pension reform, in the French western region of Normandy, France, April 7, 2023.
"We must be extremely careful not to push things. We must let things rest...The country needs appeasement," Borne told Le Monde in an interview published on Friday. Union leaders and protesters say the only way out of the crisis is for the legislation to be scrapped - an option the government has repeatedly rejected.
