It’s a return that no one saw coming… Not even the main interested party! Remember, eight years after leaving the world of politics, Roselyne Bachelot was making her comeback in government! Indeed, the one who had devoted herself to her career in the media when she left her post as Minister of Health in 2012 had finally decided to return to the path of the Élysée by succeeding Franck Riester, Minister of Culture.
A post offered at the time by Jean Castex, the former prime minister, whom Roselyne Bachelot could not refuse. Invited this Monday, June 19, 2023 on the set of “Télématin”, the 76-year-old woman also told Julia Vignali how she had accepted this tempting proposal.
“It is true that it was a dream. I have always wondered why I was not offered this position before when I was offered extremely important and prestigious positions… And when I see the name of Jean Castex displayed on my phone a famous Friday evening in July 2021… I say to myself “Come on”… When you see the number of a newly appointed minister displayed, you know that it is not to offer you a drink of tea”began Roselyne Bachelot.
And to add: I know very well that he is going to suggest that I return to government and I say to myself “Roselyne, be firm: you tell her no”. And in a sugary tone, this pervert makes me “and if it is to be Minister of Culture?” I said to myself “the thug”… He took me by the feelings! […] And then I went for it! »

Two complicated years
An experience not always easy for the doctor of pharmacy by training since during her two years of serving the government, Roselyne Bachelot had to take several restrictions during the pandemic, including the closing of performance halls or the introduction of gauges during events.
A position that Roselyne Bachelot has now left to give way to Rima Abdul Malek.
