The “Stop Global Security Law” consist of journalists’ unions, human rights NGOs and different types of associations. They’re calling for the withdrawal of the proposed law of articles 21, 22, “which organize surveillance de masse ”, and of article 24 which aims to penalize the dissemination of police officers’ image, as well as the withdrawal of the new national law enforcement plan.
After protesting last Saturday, new “freedom marches” will hold on Saturday in more than 70 cities, including the French embassies in The Hague and Berlin, according to the protest organizers, which comes after Paris police headquarters banned the parade on Saturday by decree, in particular, to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, but allowing a rally at Place de la République.
