He posted the corresponding post on his Twitter page.

"I condemn with all determination the violence and destruction committed on Saturday in Paris and in the province by the hooligans wearing yellow vests," wrote Kastaner on Twitter.

Je condamne alac la plus grande ferme de les violens et de égradations comm ces, paris caséurs camouflés en gilets jaunes.

He also added that the mobilization of law enforcement agencies on January 26 proved to be justified, since the police were necessary to prevent various incidents and “arrest violators of peace”.

Earlier it was reported that the police used tear gas against demonstrators in Paris.
