“We need a policy of firmness in terms of security and Gérald Darmanin is failing to control the situation“, declared this Tuesday, August 9 on franceinfo Othman Nasrou, vice-president of Les Républicains of the Ile-de-France region in reaction to the intensification of controls announced the day before by Gérald Darmanin, Minister of the Interior, to fight against the phenomenon of urban rodeos.
“I no longer applaud the messages, we are waiting for actions and deeds and with Gérald Darmanin history is an eternal beginning. Gérald Darmanin’s record is not good, the insecurity figures are exploding and he gives us the feeling of no longer having control of the situation“, criticized Mr. Nasrou. “It is as if he were the commentator of his own inaction. We need a policy of firmness in terms of security and Gérald Darmanin is failing to control the situation“, he continued.
After the urban rodeo in Val-d’Oise where two children were seriously injured on Friday August 5, the vice-president Les Républicains of the Île-de-France region insisted on “the feeling of impunity“of some people. “This phenomenon has been getting worse for years. The new law goes in the right direction but it is insufficient, we must go further, particularly in the seizure of vehicles.”
“I have the impression that Place Beauvau has become a communication agency.”

Gérald Darmanin, former LR, has been in office for five years as Minister of the Interior, but Othman Nasrou “do not see the actions“since his arrival.”I have the impression that Place Beauvau has become a communication agency“. He argues that “the right was doing better at the time, even if it didn’t do everything well, but in terms of security the results were much better.” Othman Nasrou nevertheless recognized that the right, with the suppression of police personnel under Sarkozy, “should not have given this signal of the State’s withdrawal from security.“
