France: Campaigners plan to demonstrate at Parc de la Villette in Paris Dec. 28 /update 1
Guinean diaspora campaigners to demonstrate at Parc de la Villette, Paris, France, from 13:00 Dec. 28; increased security likely.
Guinean diaspora campaigners moved their planned 13:00 Dec. 28 protest to 211 Avenue Jean Jaures in Parc de la Villette in Paris; organizers had originally planned to hold the gathering at Place de la Republique. Guinean opposition politicians and civil society groups will demand that the current military-led administration transition to a democratic civilian government. It is unclear how many people will participate in the event.
Authorities will likely deploy additional police to monitor the protest. Heightened security and pedestrian congestion may prompt localized road transport disruptions, but the event is likely to pass off peacefully.
Avoid the demonstration as a standard precaution. Consider taking alternative routes and modes of transport to mitigate the impact of any related disruptions. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers.
