  "account": "Following reports of unrest during student protests in France, representatives of high school students have distanced themselves from violence. Nathanaël Combray, from the \"Renouveau Lycéen\" organization, stated during a conversation with Education Minister Édouard Geffray that there were scenes of violence that are \"absolutely revolting.\" He called on the students to behave responsibly and not to join movements that do not support their cause, pointing to troublemakers. Louis Letoublon of \"Les Lycéens\" said the incidents were committed by external individuals rather than the students themselves. Multiple instances of violence occurred near the protests. Thousands of young people were arrested, with authorities accusing them of property damage and attacking law enforcement. A video on Friday caused shock, showing a police officer being thrown to the ground and beaten. The student representatives simultaneously called for more protests, expressing disappointment. \"We are a bit disappointed,\" Letoublon noted. The work in the Ministry to address the complained issues should continue, but in order to maintain pressure, they wanted to continue demonstrating. Ryad Rani of the USL trade union also called for further protests. Specific announcements from the minister regarding the matter were not given, he said. They would therefore not let up. Several education trade unions called for support for a student demonstration day planned for Tuesday, possibly through strikes.",
