Gdreams: end of suspense. 48 hours from a day of strike which promises to be strongly followed, the RATP and the SNCF will publish their traffic forecasts for Thursday 19 January. Both trains and public transport in the Ile-de-France should be heavily disrupted by this social movement. The strikers will mobilize mainly against the pension reform defended by the government, which provides for a postponement of the legal retirement age to 64 years.

Meeting. The Nupes will hold a joint mobilization meeting against the pension reform on Tuesday, January 17. This public meeting, which will take place at 7 p.m. at the Japy gymnasium, in the 11th arrondissement of Paris, will bring together representatives of La France insoumise, the Socialist Party, EELV, the PCF and Génération.s. Tuesday, January 10, a first joint meeting had already brought together, among others, the socialist Boris Vallaud, the ecologist Marine Tondelier, the communist Fabien Roussel, as well as the rebellious François Ruffin and Mathilde Panot.

Nuclear. The Minister for Ecological Transition, Agnès Pannier-Runacher, will be in the Senate to defend the government’s bill to accelerate renewable and nuclear energies. This project provides in particular for the construction of six new EPR nuclear reactors by 2035-2037, according to the objectives put forward by the minister. The right-wing majority in the Senate should be rather favorable to the text, even if some senators have deplored that the text arrives before the energy programming bill, fixing the trajectories of France in each energy, and hoped for June 2023. “The construction of six new EPRs is the largest industrial project launched in France since the 1970s and one of the largest in the world today. Our legislation was not designed for these kinds of projects. This justifies exceptional measures,” said Agnès Pannier-Runacher in an interview published in Le Figaro Monday January 16.
