From Tokyo to Turin to LA, Trump’s policies loom over May Day marches
By YURI KAGEYAMA and THOMAS ADAMSON, May 1, 2025
PARIS (AP) — "French union leaders condemned the “#Trumpization” of world politics, while in Italy, #MayDay protesters paraded a puppet of the American president through the streets of Turin.
"Across continents, tens of thousands turned out for Thursday’s rallies marking International Workers’ Day, many citing President Donald Trump’s agenda — from aggressive tariffs spurring fears of global economic turmoil to immigration crackdowns — as a central concern.
"In the United States, organizers said this year’s protests aimed to push back against efforts to roll back protections for immigrants, federal workers and diversity initiatives.
"In #Germany, union leaders warned that extended workdays and rising #AntiImmigrant sentiment were dismantling labor protections. And in Bern, #Switzerland, thousands marched behind banners denouncing #fascism and war — part of a wider backlash against the global surge of #HardRight politics.
"In #Taiwan, President Lai Ching-te referenced new U.S. tariffs under Trump as he promoted a proposed spending bill aimed at stabilizing the job market and supporting livelihoods. In the #Philippines, protest leader Mong Palatino warned that 'tariff wars and policies of Trump' threatened local industries.
"In #Japan, Trump’s image loomed over the day quite literally, as a truck in the Tokyo march carried a doll made to resemble him. There, participants’ demands ranged from higher wages and gender equality to health care, disaster relief, a ceasefire in #Gaza and an end to #Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine.
" 'For our children to be able to live with hope, the rights of #workers must be recognized,' said Junko Kuramochi, a member of a mothers’ group in Tokyo."
