French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said on the 29th that since “public order chaos” is very likely to occur this Saturday, October 31, the government will deploy a total of 70,000 gendarmes and police officers to many parts of France at that time to maintain law and order. In an interview, Nunez said that the government has detected people using Halloween as an excuse to call on people to hold rallies in various French cities at 8 p.m. on October 31. Relevant mobilizing information was spread by extreme left-wing groups and “yellow vest” activists. However, such gatherings will be banned. According to Nunez, relevant events must not be held in the city center, which could cause “chaos in public order.” “We will not tolerate any excessive behavior.” Nunez said the government would take “extremely tough” measures to deal with it. Furthermore, security measures for stores will also be strengthened.
