Greta Thunberg joined the opponents in Tarn

In the rain and in the squalls, Greta Thunberg came to support opponents of the A69 motorway project. In the middle of the fields, the group managed to make their way. A little further away, gendarmes tried to evacuate a camp. A few minutes later, the Swedish activist posed with the anti-A69. “I really thank her from the bottom of my heart, because she is internationally known, so it brings us a lot of visibility.”confides an activist.

A round table in the afternoon

At the podium, activists, masked for security reasons, they said, took advantage of the event to reiterate their priorities: “We keep joy with us regardless of the violence imposed on us, because we are categorical: the trees will remain standing, and their highway project is illegitimate. All means are good to stop them.” Some activists have decided to occupy the trees. The president of Tarn recalls that the project is vital to open up his department. Greta Thunberg is due to attend a round table in the afternoon.
