PARIS, April 20 (Reuters) - Workers at France's nuclear power plants of Dampierre in central France and Chinon in southwestern France extended on Monday a strike which began on April 16, the CGT union said.

"Staff at Dampierre and Chinon voted to continue the action" a union spokesman told Reuters.
