A Prime Minister who remained “stoic”
Emmanuel Macron “did not mention Elisabeth Borne by name, but that did not deceive anyone. Everyone understood that it was addressed to him”explains Guillaume Daret. “It is a scathing response to the words of the Prime Minister who, she, ‘stoic’ according to a minister present, did not react”continues the journalist. “It is not at all new, because Emmanuel Macron has always had this strategy with regard to the RN.
