Why It Matters

示威活動響應重振2018年黃背心運動,起因於對高生活成本及社會不公的不滿。近期法國北郊高中生抗議師資短缺,進一步點燃全國怒火。

數以萬計的民眾17日在法國多地示威,抗議高物價以及本應提供人民基本機會和安全的社會福利系統逐漸瓦解。巴黎等大城傳出縱火、破壞和警民衝突,警方動用催淚瓦斯和水砲驅離暴力滋事群眾。

《美聯社》、英國《衛報》報導,大多數示威者都和平表達訴求,但內政部指出,巴黎、馬賽、勒恩市、土魯斯等多地有蒙面人士滋事。在巴黎警方部署大批警力,主要的遊行隊伍從共和國廣場出發,前往克利希廣場市中心,有示威者喊出意指法國大革命的口號「我們要攻占巴士底」,在共和國廣場有部分蒙面者朝員警投擲煙火和雜物,遭鎮暴警察發射催淚瓦斯。

南部的馬賽有商店和警局遭破壞,部分示威者一度闖入市政廳,北部的里爾也有示威者一度衝進市政廳;里昂一座遊客服務中心起火,竄出濃煙和烈焰。內政部長努涅斯(Laurent Nunez)辦公室說,到17日中午,巴黎以外地區已有140場抗議活動、逾3萬人參與,全國至少166人被捕。

這場示威行動是響應社群媒體上號召重振2018年抗議社會不公而起的「黃背心」(gilets jaunes)運動的呼聲,上月巴黎北郊貧困地區的高中學生不滿師資短缺和校舍老舊展開抗議,點燃這股怒火,迅速向全國延燒。法國主要工會「法國總工會」(CGT)也支持示威行動,要求加薪、提高年金、降低物價及保障符合人民需求的公共服務。

根據10月針對2000人所做民調,約45%的法國民眾擔心持續高漲的生活成本和通貨膨脹。

僅透露名為「羅拉」(Lola)的19歲學生參與巴黎的示威,她說,「我們抗爭是因為生活成本太高、燃料價格太高,也是因為高中學生僅因為試圖抗議要求增加教師和適當的學習環境,就遭暴力對待、受傷」。

總統馬克宏16日呼籲冷靜,說憲法保障示威與表達自由,但是前提是對他人的尊重。警方也已禁止部分集會申請,17日多座鄰近巴黎香榭麗舍大道及政府機關的地鐵站關閉。
