Sputnik is live from Paris as the Yellow Vests take to the streets to demonstrate against COVID-19 restrictions and French President Emmanuel Macron's economic policies.

Since 2 February in France, it has no longer been necessary to wear masks on the street; stadiums, arenas and other large-capacity places are now able to operate at full capacity. From mid-February, people will be allowed to eat and drink in stadiums and cinemas and on transport, as well as visit bars. Nightclubs will be allowed to reopen.
