Dennis said: "Our job is to communicate to the EU that the implementation of the so-called 'health pass' until 2023 is something that most of our citizens cannot understand."

Not everyone from Nice intends to travel all the way to Paris or Brussels. The convoy consisted of motorcycles and private cars, with no trucks.
