Interviewed by Apolline de Malherbe on the BFTMV morning show this Friday, September 20, Franz-Olivier Giesbert did not mince his words about the head of state.
“Cazeneuve, it didn’t happen, because Macron can’t stand him”he said, considering that there was nevertheless “a little playing card”. Bernard Cazeneuve now works as a lawyer in a private practice.
