France: Anti-EU protest planned at Romanian Embassy in Paris Jan. 4
Protest denouncing EU planned at Romanian Embassy in Paris, France, 15:00 Jan. 4. Increased security, localized disruptions likely.
The Patriots party plans to lead a demonstration outside the Romanian Embassy on Rue Saint Dominique in Paris at 15:00 on Jan. 4. Demonstrators will denounce the EU and call for France's exit from the bloc. It is unclear how many people will participate in the event, but attendance could reach the low thousands.
Authorities will likely deploy additional police to monitor the protest. Heightened security and pedestrian congestion may prompt localized road transport disruptions, but the event will likely 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.
