Aurore Malval, editor-in-chief of “Marianne”, deciphers Michel Barnier’s handover speech at the Hôtel de Matignon on Thursday, September 5.
Aurore Malval, deputy editor-in-chief of the website Mariannedissects in the franceinfo Talk on Twitch the speech of the new Prime Minister Michel Barnier during the transfer of power with Gabriel Attal, this Thursday, September 5.
The expression “the people below” particularly caught his attention: “I was a bit taken aback by this… These are euphemisms that are fifteen years old to describe today’s France! Is this the harbinger of a disconnect that will not improve?”
Appointed on Wednesday midday by the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron, Michel Barnier received the keys to the Hôtel de Matignon from Gabriel Attal at the end of the day, after more than fifty days of unprecedented political crisis. The day after his appointment, the new Prime Minister must now set about forming a government capable of demonstrating its ability to unite.
