Paris, Dec 5 (EFE/EPA), (Camera: Christope Petit-Tesson).- The strike against the pension reform promoted by the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, is causing major disruptions in rail and air transport, as well as the closure of schools and various cultural institutions. The National Railway Company (SNCF) warns that only one out of ten high-speed TGV, Paris suburban and Intercity long-distance trains run, as well as one out of five regional trains (TER), while international traffic is also very affected.PICTURES OF THE PENSION STRIKE IN A TRAIN STATION IN PARIS.
