"The political class and the far right in Lyon are scandalized by these events, which are much more discreet when violent evictions and deprivation of access to water are daily occurrences, particularly in Calais, or when their allies attack armed in the city streets.
We affirm that gestures matter and that our solidarity goes towards popular self-defense, ”published the antifa movement.
A counter-current message that may not please Gérald Darmanin.
The Minister of the Interior had indeed asked for the dissolution of this group on March 30th.
A procedure suspended by the Council of State on April 16, the judges considering that the alleged facts (violent actions and disturbances to public order) did not justify a dissolution.
