Some sentences uttered by the French president have caused discussion Emmanuel Macron during his visit to Mayotte, an overseas territory located in the Indian Ocean recently hit by Cyclone Chido. If this area were not part of France, “you would be 10 thousand times more in the shit…”, said Macron during a particularly heated exchange with some locals, among whom there were many people angry at the management of the relief effort . “If you pit people against each other we’re screwed…” Macron then said, while many chanted “Macron resign”.
The video of the scene, which circulated on social networks, was strongly criticized by the opposition, in particular by the Rassemblement National of Marine Le Pen and from La France Insoumise by Jean-Luc Mélenchon.
The head of state arrived yesterday to personally see the damage caused by the cyclone and speak with local elected representatives to outline the aid program for the area. The plane on which the president arrived was carrying four tons of humanitarian aid.
