Friday October 4, the leader of the LFI, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, launched a call to wave the Palestinian and Lebanese flags in universities in France from this Tuesday. An unwelcome call according to François Hollande.
François Hollande disapproved Monday of Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s call to put Palestinian and Lebanese flags in universities, saying that only French flags can be “worn in public places.”
“The flags that we must carry in public places are the French flags. The rest is propaganda which has no place in public places, it can have its place in the street to express support for this or that cause,” reacted the former socialist president on TF1.
Emmanuel Macron aroused the anger of Benjamin Netanyahu
The rebellious leader called on Friday to “put Palestinian flags wherever possible” from Tuesday, in reaction to a circular from Minister Patrick Hetzel on “maintaining order” in universities. François Hollande also considered that Emmanuel Macron’s declaration on the cessation of arms deliveries to Israel “the day before October 7” was not “necessarily the most appropriate” especially since “France does not deliver no weapons to Israel.
Emmanuel Macron aroused the anger of Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday by affirming that the “priority” was now “a political solution” and that “we had to stop delivering weapons to carry out the fighting in Gaza” while specifying that France did not provide any itself.
Emmanuel Macron “is right to say that the ceasefire must come as quickly as possible, otherwise there is the risk of an endless war,” he added. But “the voice of France and Europe, beyond calling for a ceasefire, is to prepare for the future, that is to say peace,” he said. -he estimated.
