epa10570633 People attend a rally against the government's reform to the pension system in Montpellier, France, 13 April 2023. The 'sages', members of the Constitutional Council, are due to deliver their verdict on 14 April concerning the examination of the text of the pension reform, almost one month after the country's prime minister announced the use of article 49.3 of the French Constitution to have the text of the controversial bill to be definitively adopted without a vote. The reform would raise the retirement age in France from 62 to 64.  EPA/Guillaume Horcajuelo
