"We would have liked to organize a march and a parade but for security

reasons

we will be content with a rally with all the police unions and citizens who wish to come

For the trade unionist, this is not the time for anger. It will probably be on May 19 next during the citizens' march planned in Paris at the call, again, of all the trade unions.

"You will probably have to expect something more punchy," said

Rocco Contento. All the police unions also suspended their participation on May 17 in the “Beauvau de la sécurité”.
