On May 9, 2026, an administrative court upheld the Paris Police Prefecture's decision to prohibit a march organized by ultranationalist activists.

This ruling comes in response to concerns regarding a 'very tense political climate' in the city, which has been a focal point for various political demonstrations.

The march had been a recurring event since 2008, but the court's decision reflects the authorities' aim to maintain public order during this sensitive period.
