French citizens angry at President Emmanuel Macron's pension reforms engaged in scattered protest actions Friday, as the ongoing unrest across the country persuaded officials to postpone a planned state visit by Britain's King Charles III.
Workers already refused to roll out the red carpet for the British monarch's arrival, originally scheduled for Sunday. The French are protesting a decision to raise the retirement age to 64 from 62.
French President Emmanuel Macron says “common sense and friendship” led to the cancellation of King Charles III’s upcoming visit due to the anti-government protests in France.
