Guillaume Peltier defended Eric Zemmour’s proposal around self-defense. The far-right candidate wishes to broaden the conditions to integrate into French law the notion of “excusable defense”.
“Éric Zemmour will not be the president of the culprits, he will be the president of the victims, the police, the gendarmes, the robbed traders”, assured Guillaume Peltier, spokesperson for Éric Zemmour, candidate for Reconquest! in the presidential election, this Thursday on franceinfo. He was thus referring to the far-right candidate’s proposal to introduce into French law “the notion of excusable defence”. “There must no longer be any proportionality” of the threat to be in a situation of “self-defense”, explained Éric Zemmour on January 26, on Public Sénat. A proposal that the candidate had already mentioned during his meeting in Cannes.

“Our model is Germany and Switzerland, which have relaxed the criteria that allow self-defense”said Guillaume Peltier. “We consider that in a number of cases, not all cases, self-defense should be respected and heard”he added.
