On the set of C to youjournalist Salhia Brakhlia returned to a exchange that shocked hime with Carole Delga on Franceinfo. The subject was sensitive since it involves l’immigration.
Carole Delga, the PS president of the Occitanie regional council, seems to have made a totally off topic on the definition of an immigrantwhich Salhia Brakhlia did not fail to point out.
Return to a clash over immigration in C à vous
Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine’s columnists broadcast the famous extract which angers between the two women on the set of C to you. Carole Delga begins: “immigration is wealth for France. So far, so good, but the rest is going to get bad. According to her, it is thanks to people with immigrant backgrounds that hospitals and retirement homes held up during the Covid crisis.
Then she mentions the favorite personalities French people like Kylian Mbappé or Yannick Noah. But there, Salhia Brakhlia cannot help but intervene and cuts her off cleanly. With an amused smile, she retorts “They are French”. Destabilized, Carole Delga then tries to make up for it: “yes, but they are of foreign origin, they are the fruits of immigration”.
Not wanting to give up anything, Salhia Brakhlia insists and specifies that Kilian Mbappé was born in France, just like his mother. Even if the journalist responded with humor, we feel the deep discomfort. The excerpt from the interview ends and Bernard Cohen takes the opportunity to remember the exact definition : “an immigrant is a foreign person, born abroad and residing in France.”
Salhia Brakhlia, still irritated with Carole Delga
Salhia Brakhlia confides to the chroniclers of C to you : “it’s annoying. I have to contain myself, I’m a journalist, but when she says that, she tells me that I’m an immigrant too. We’ll have to wait how many generations to be considered totally French?
Sofiane Zermani, also present on the set of C to youcalm things down by giving his opinion: “How many generations, I don’t know, but the cool thing is that there is a part of this country and this continent that don’t think like this lady.”
The journalist Jérôme Chapuis, for his part, put Carole Delga’s comments into perspective by evoking a possible “stress” who could have done it express yourself “awkwardly”. One thing is certain, the subject of immigration remains a sensitive subject, but there is no taboo subject on Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine’s set!
