For Éric Dupond-Moretti, the “best ally of the RN is Jean-Luc Mélenchon”

“The best ally of the National Rally [RN]that I fight, it’s Jean-Luc Mélenchon”, says the Minister of Justice, Éric Dupond-Moretti, Friday October 6 on franceinfo. For him, “these are the excesses” of the leader of La France insoumise (LFI) “which allow us to highlight the silence of the National Rally”.

The criticism does not only apply to the former presidential candidate. “All the excesses of LFI make us view the National Rally as peaceful, demonized, tranquil and calm”, insists the Minister of Justice. A reference to the attitude of the Insoumis deputies and that of the RN deputies, in the hemicycle.

Within the presidential majority, however, some recognize a share of responsibility in this “demonization” from the training of Marine Le Pen, like Sacha Houlié. “There is a whole strategy of legitimizing the National Rally, for which we could have made mistakes”admitted the president (Renaissance) of the law commission of the National Assembly, on Saturday September 23 on France Culture. “Clearly”THE “vote for RN deputies for vice-presidencies” was one, he pointed out.

Éric Dupond-Moretti also attacks Marine Le Pen, through “his new friend, Mr. Salvini”the Italian Minister of Transport. “Let us remember, for example, when he goes to Moscow, he has been there often, he looks at Red Square, he says that it is clean, that it has no dirt and that there is no there are no Roma”. “See, I can’t be friends with a guy like that.”he says.
