上百萬法國工人舉行大罷工

示威工人要求政府采取措施保障就業和提高工資

上百萬法國工人周四（29日）走上街頭舉行跨行業全國大罷工，抗議法國政府處理金融危機的措施，罷工對法國鐵路和航空交通造成了混亂。

法國各大工會說，約有250萬工人走上街頭遊行示威，要求政府采取措施保障就業、提高工資和購買力水平。

但警方表示罷工人數約有1百萬人。

法國總統薩爾科奇說，工人們對金融危機的擔憂合情合理，政府也願意聽取工人的意見並採取相關措施。

薩爾科奇說，他將在下月與工會和商界領袖見面，商量今年應當採取什麼樣的改革措施。

這次大罷工是在法國八大工會的號召下舉行的。法國政府預計約有四分之一的公務員參加了這次大罷工，但工會認為參與的人數更多。

法國總工會發言人說，共有250萬工人參加了這次大罷工。

法國總工會領導人呼籲薩爾科奇總統認識到有關情況的嚴重性，並呼籲他重新評估政府處理這次經濟危機的措施。

在巴黎，65,000名示威者走過巴士底獄遺址，向市場中心進發。

報道說，當示威者遊行接近市區的時候發生了暴力事件，一些青年在一個主要的商業街道投擲空飲料瓶並在街頭點火。

防暴警察後來這些鬧事青年擋回了巴士底獄遺址附近的示威集合點。
