法国全国范围内针对生活成本高涨的抗议活动，以及抗议活动边缘出现的抢劫和纵火场景，加深了该国政治光谱两极之间的分歧，并引发了美国副总统JD·万斯的反应。
Nationwide protests in France against the high cost of living and scenes of looting and burning on the sidelines deepened a schism between extremes in the country’s political spectrum and drew a reaction from US Vice President JD Vance.
民调显示领先于2027年总统选举的极右翼领袖玛丽娜·勒庞直接指责极左翼火药桶让-吕克·梅朗松煽动了暴力。
Marine Le Pen, the far-right leader who leads in polls ahead of the presidential election in 2027, directly blamed far-left firebrand Jean-Luc Mélenchon for stirring up the violence.
随着抗议活动失控，梅朗松与总理塞巴斯蒂安·勒科尔努在X平台上也爆发了争执，巴黎、波尔多等大城市出现抢劫，而法国中部城市利摩日的历史市政厅被纵火。
A spat between Mélenchon and Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu also emerged on X as protests spiraled out of control, with looting in large cities such as Paris and Bordeaux, while the historic city hall in Limoges in central France was set ablaze.
勒庞周六在X平台上的一篇帖子中表示，“合法的社会诉求”被“极左翼以及让-吕克·梅朗松议员们的言论所劫持”，他们“通过合法化暴力、将秩序视为压迫、将混乱视为权利，正试图将国家推向混乱。”梅朗松则将部分骚乱归咎于警察挑衅，并在X上写道，“那些与我们斗争同在的人不应参与抢劫或破坏。”法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙也在X上作出回应，呼吁对抢劫者和破坏者“起诉并惩罚”，并表示支持警察。
Le Pen said Saturday in a post on X that “legitimate social demands” were “hijacked by the far left and the rhetoric of Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s members of parliament, who, by legitimizing violence and viewing order as oppression and disorder as a right, are seeking to plunge the country into chaos.”Mélenchon blamed police provocation for some of the disorder and wrote on X that “those who share our struggle are not to be involved in looting or vandalism.”President Emmanuel Macron also reacted on X, calling for looters and vandals to be “prosecuted and punished,” standing in support of the police.
周六，超过五十万人走上法国各地街头参加抗议，但起初为抗议课堂和医院条件恶劣而和平游行的活动很快演变为暴力。勒科尔努表示，当天共有1200人被捕。
The protests drew more than half a million people to streets across the country on Saturday, but what started out as peaceful processions to complain about poor conditions in classrooms and hospitals soon erupted into violence. Lecornu said 1,200 people had been arrested during the day.
周六，多方对政府的治安计划提出质疑。马赛市长伯努瓦·佩扬请求与勒科尔努会面。他在周日质疑为何抗议者与警察会发生冲突，而抢劫者却似乎可以自由闯入商店。
Several took issue with the state’s plan for law and order on Saturday. Marseille Mayor Benoit Payan has requested a meeting with Lecornu. He asked on Sunday why there were confrontations between protesters and police, while looters appeared to have a free hand breaking into shops.
利摩日市政厅发生火灾后，万斯作出回应，将这些事件与移民和缺乏同化联系起来。“西方自由派以多元化和同情心为名，将第三世界引进到了法国和其他国家，”他写道，“我祈祷法国这个拥有出色人民的美丽国家，能在更多的地标建筑被烧毁之前停止这种疯狂行为。”周六是欧洲各地爆发更大规模示威的一天。在意大利，生活成本抗议活动也在都灵和博洛尼亚演变成冲突。
The fire in the town hall of Limoges prompted a response from Vance, who linked the events to immigration and a lack of assimilation. “Western liberals imported the third world into France and other countries in the name of diversity and compassion,” he wrote. “I pray that France, a beautiful country of amazing people, will stop this madness before more of its landmarks burn.”Saturday was a day of broader demonstrations across Europe. In Italy, cost-of-living protests also descended into clashes in Turin and Bologna.
在米兰，一场组织松散的游行吸引了形形色色的人群，随后，主要由戴面具的年轻人组成的暴徒群体在意大利金融中心核心地带的主广场——米兰大教堂广场内部及周边与警察发生冲突，他们投掷铺路石和爆竹并洗劫店铺。
In Milan, a loosely organized demonstration drew a mixed crowd before groups of mostly young, masked rioters fought police in and around Piazza Duomo, the main square at the heart of Italy’s financial capital, throwing paving stones and firecrackers and looting stores.
“示火（此处原文为Demonstrating is a right. Setting our cities on fire is not）游行是权利。纵火焚烧我们的城市则不是，”意大利总理焦尔吉娅·梅洛尼于周六表示。
“Demonstrating is a right. Setting our cities on fire is not,” Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said on Saturday.
