Demonstrationen: Schülerproteste auch in Italien
Wie in Frankreich gehen nun auch im Nachbarland Schüler auf die Straßen - allerdings deutlich weniger. Der Protest richtet sich auch gegen die rechte Regierung von Ministerpräsidentin Meloni.
Student protests are not limited to Italy, as they have also taken place in several Italian cities, including Rome, Milan, Turin, and Verona. These demonstrations were sparked by dissatisfaction with school conditions. Over a thousand participants took to the streets, holding chants and banners, expressing their support for students in France, where protests have been ongoing since the end of September.
Similar to France, Italian demonstrators called for more teachers, better school facilities, and improved learning conditions. Additionally, protests targeted a new law by the right-wing coalition led by Premier Giorgia Meloni, which aims to limit the number of foreign students with poor Italian language skills starting from the next academic year.
Initially, the rallies were peaceful in the morning, but some incidents of scuffles and property damage occurred. In contrast to the generally peaceful protests in France, where hundreds of thousands took to the streets, Italy saw more chaotic gatherings.
