The Paris Stock Exchange EURONEXT building was brought to an abrupt halt today as hundreds of Protestors stormed past security and entered the building with flares, signs, horns, and other disruptive devices, to protest President Emmanuel Macron’s pension reform plan.
The building is located in the La Défense business district, just on the outskirts of the capital.
“railway workers and others” are seen chanting and waving union flags. Additionally, a Euronext spokeswoman stated that the protest had concluded by 1 p.m. local time. Moreover, the protestors “had no impact on its operations and hadn’t disrupted trading.”
