PSG: Lucas Digne’s partner protests after the demonstrations of October 17

Tiziri Digne, the partner of footballer Lucas Digne, addressed recent civil unrest in France following protests on Saturday, October 17. Reacting to the demonstrations against the rising cost of living, which included incidents of looting and violence, she took to Instagram to place the unrest into historical context, referencing the events of July 14, 1789, and May 1968.

She urged the public to focus on deeper societal issues rather than solely on property damage, highlighting underfunded schools and hospitals, systemic inequalities, racism, and police violence. Defending the legitimacy of the protesters' underlying demands, she argued that the fundamental problems facing French society deserve greater attention than damaged bus stops or storefronts.
