Macron inaugurates the agricultural show in Paris between fights, insults and promises protected by riot police. The agricultural show, an annual fair that French presidents usually attend, takes place in the capital until March 3.
This year it occurs in a tense context, after farmers blocked several highways in the country at the end from January. Some of them called him a "liar", shouted "get out" and urged him to resign. But despite the scenes of chaos, he managed to hold informal talks with farmers, some of whom were members of the country's three main agricultural unions.
