France deployed more than 2,000 members of the security forces to the Maurienne Alpine valley in the country’s east on Saturday as hundreds of activists prepared to defy a ban to protest against plans for a high-speed train linking the French city of Lyon with Turin, Italy. The activists aim to protest against the environmental impacts of the train link.
