Impact shared an excerpt from France Info in which Mohamed, 18, explained that he obtained a general baccalaureate in mathematics and physics-chemistry and made 80 applications to IFSI, without receiving any admissions. He mentioned that he found himself without a school or job and had protested despite his peaceful temperament. Mohamed believed that the media primarily highlighted the damage and looting, to the detriment of the demands regarding purchasing power. He referenced the Yellow Vests, whose demonstrations had, in his opinion, achieved results, and expressed his desire to continue the mobilizations, without violence, until the demands were heard. He added that the rise in fuel prices now forced him to monitor every expense related to his travel and outings. #Manifestation #BAC #PouvoirDAchat (translated)
