“It’s a great ideological victory for the RN”, argues Laure Lavalette

Emmanuel Macron undertook on Tuesday June 13 to relocate the production of around fifty essential drugs to France to deal with shortages. Laure Lavalette, spokesperson for the National Rally group at the Assembly greets Wednesday on France Inter a “great ideological victory of the National Rally”.

The member for Var sees in this announcement “common sense” and a form of “economic patriotism”a theme dear to the National Rally. “Marine Le Pen has spoken a lot about this pharmaceutical sovereignty, especially at the level of Covid”, supports Laure Lavalette. She explains that at the time of the health crisis, “the French realized that most of the molecules of our drugs came from China and India”.

If she is convinced that the relocation plan announced by the Head of State “going in the right direction”Laure Lavalette affirms that her party will remain “extremely vigilant” : “Between what the government says and what it does there is often a huge gap”, she assures. The spokeswoman for the RN group in the National Assembly recognizes that her party “is a little scalded” : “When we sold Lafarge, Alstom, Arcelor-Mittal, Alcatel, when we hacked the industrial family jewels, when we lost 38,000 industrial jobs under the Macron era, we wonder if he will go until the end”she says.
