Macron concessions to cost between 8-10 billion euros - minister
"It's between 8 to billion euros," Olivier Dussopt, junior minister for public accounts, said on BFM TV. "We are in the process of fine-tuning and to see how to finance it."
Macron announced earlier on Monday wage rises for the poorest workers and tax cuts for pensioners in further concessions meant to defuse weeks of often violent protests that have challenged his authority.
