French President Emmanuel Macron called for unity among the French people ahead of a Paris march against anti-Semitism set for November 12, 2023. Representatives from Macron’s La République en marche (Republic on the move) party, the right-wing Les Republicains, the Socialist Party, the Greens and the French Communist Party were set to participate. Far-right leader Marine Le Pen has said she plans to attend. Hard-left leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon criticised the march, and his La France Insoumise (France Unbowed) party held its own protest against anti-Semitism earlier Sunday – which was disrupted by counter-protesters challenging the party’s stance.
