Louvre staff voted unanimously in a general assembly of about 400 workers to launch a renewable strike that has forced the museum to remain closed while staff review daily whether to continue the action.Unions CFDT, CGT and Sud say the museum is "in crisis" over understaffing, security lapses and aging infrastructure, and CFDT official Alexis Fritche said recent government discussions led by Rachida Dati showed progress but fell short without written, enforceable commitments.The Culture Ministry has tasked
Philippe Jost with proposing a deep reorganization, hearings are continuing in the Senate with
Jean-Luc Martinez and
Laurence des Cars due to testify, and union leader
Christian Galani warned that the closure could extend unless authorities meet core demands.
