Francia impondrá a partir del martes al mediodía un confinamiento casi total para todos sus ciudadanos, que solo podrán salir a la calle por motivos de primera necesidad, para frenar la propagación del coronavirus, anunció el lunes el presidente Emmanuel Macron.

Asimismo, el mandatario francés anunció que todos los viajes entre países no europeos y la Unión Europea quedarán suspendidos durante 30 días.

"Desde mañana al medio día y al menos por 15 días la circulación de las personas será reducida fuertemente", indicó Macron en un discurso a la nación retransmitido por televisión.
