Frankly, Emmanuel Macron's South American tour goes beyond our expectations. The day before yesterday, we wrote here: “ Emmanuel Macron is a bit like OSS 117 in Rio no longer responds. ” A little ? The Haitian incident forces us to review our assessment: Emmanuel Macron is downright OSS 117. It's very simple, he doesn't miss a single one.
Our President on the loose…
The Haitian incident? It is going around social networks, and now, around the world because, it is well known, success breeds success. On the sidelines of the G20, in his shirt sleeves, our President wandering the streets of Rio (we don't know if he forgot to “go up there”, as the unforgettable Dario Moreno once sang) is strongly questioned by a Haitian. He reproaches him, as well as France, “ to be responsible for the situation in Haiti ».
The situation in Haiti? Political, social, economic, security and humanitarian crises are overwhelming this unfortunate Caribbean country. Port-au-Prince, its capital, is 80% controlled by gangs. Moreover, recently, the official website of our Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs notably noted the high risk of kidnapping and advised nationals against traveling to this country. In short, chaos. Last May, the Presidential Transitional Council, a collegial body formed in April, designated Doctor Garry Conille, who had been Prime Minister for a semester in 2011-2012, as head of government. But on November 10, this same Presidential Transitional Council dismissed him. For what ? That's not the question, and let's come back to Rio.
Our freewheeling President…
What does OSS 117 say to this Haitian? “ There, frankly, it was the Haitians who killed Haiti, leaving drug trafficking behind. And there, what they did, the Prime Minister was great, I defended him, they fired him! » Until then, nothing – or almost nothing – to say. Let’s move on to the “savior of the world” side which crashes everything it touches: “ I defended him, they fired him. » Let’s move on to the language of the street: “ The Prime Minister was great. »After all, we are on the street. It is, moreover, in the street that Macron is at his best. We remember his famous “ Just cross the street » to find work, addressed to these young French people. It’s then that things get really bad: “ It's terrible. It's terrible. And I can't replace him. They are complete idiots, they should never have released it, the Prime Minister was great. » Freewheeling, Manu. Obviously, the scene was probably not intended to be filmed, but you know how it is today, in the age of social networks and all that…
And a little diplomatic crisis, one!
The art of inexpensively instigating a little diplomatic crisis from behind the scenes. Protest by the Haitian ambassador to the incredible Jean-Noël Barrot, brilliant successor to Stéphane Séjourné at the Quai d'Orsay. Summoning our French ambassador to Port-au-Prince. Classic. Fortunately, Haiti is not Russia. How to say? We had a sort of intuition. That this trip by Macron to the Americas would relegate that of General de Gaulle, sixty years ago, to the rank of a nice cruise for pre-retirees. That he would find a way to amaze us. You have to admit that with him, you are never disappointed.
« And what do you call a country which has as president a soldier with full powers, a secret police, a single television channel and all information in which is controlled by the State? – I call it France, Mademoiselle, and not just any France: the France of General de Gaulle », replied OSS 117, in Rio no longer responds. And what do you call a country which has as president a man who says bullshit – Oh, then flute, since the word is now Elysian – bullshit? I call it France, Mademoiselle, and not just any France: Emmanuel Macron’s France.
