French pupils resume school blockades as country braces for more protests
Dozens of high schools across France were blockaded again on Monday as the government prepared for another tense week of protests. The demonstrations concern school conditions and the high cost of living. A minister warned that weeks without lessons are putting some pupils' school year and final exams at risk. Unions plan a nationwide strike on Thursday.
📊 What it means for markets
Protests of this kind are usually domestic and often have limited direct effect on global markets. If unrest widened, it may weigh modestly on French sentiment or the euro, but this report does not point to a clear market impact.
