A new protest has been called for Saturday near the Eiffel Tower in Paris under the slogans "Let us breathe", "No justice, no peace", echoing the words used since Floyd's death sparked demonstrations across the US. "The real virus is racism", they chanted, with many holding placards copying US slogans such as "Black Lives Matter".
