Paris:
Hundreds of people in Paris participated in protests against US President elect Donald Trump. The protesters were heavily anxious whether or not the Trump administration will respect human rights of women and minorities.
Protesters, including many Americans living in France, took to the streets today in the Eiffel Tower neighbourhood behind a large banner, "Paris against Trump".
Youssef Al-Moughrabi, born in California and studying in Paris, told The Associated Press, "We are not contesting election results.
But in every democracy, I believe there is a government and there is an opposition, in a healthy democracy, and we are the opposition.
"Many placards could be seen in the crowd with messages against racism, misogyny, Islamophobia, "homophobia" and "white nationalism".
