Sputnik comes live from Paris as demonstrators from the Yellow Vest protest group hold a rally on the movement's fourth anniversary.
The Yellow Vests began protesting in France on a large scale in November 2018 with their demand that there should be no rise in fuel tax and gas prices. The movement then expanded its list of demands to incorporate a range of social and political items. Protests are often accompanied by riots and clashes with the police.
