But look where we come from! 2020 has been a pretty fantastic flight”explains Jean Laurent Felizia. “Today if Yannick Jadot is our driving force, we will no doubt win constituencies and form a group in the National Assembly. I think we shouldn’t skip the stages”, analyzes the chosen one. He concedes it “Winning a presidential election today seems complicated (…) but let’s resist and continue the fight”he said.

“Everything will be played until the last day”

For Saber Gasmi, the co-referent of the Nice support committee for Yannick Jadotnothing is yet lost, even if he recognizes a lack of enthusiasm for his candidate. “Everything will be played until the last day, until the last minute of the campaign. What matters is how much we will finish on arrival”he believes. “In recent years there have been millions of French people who trust political ecology. It is clear that this support does not really translate into political commitment”, remarks the activist.

He denounces “reactionary overtones that engulf the expected quality debate in this presidential election.” The first round of the presidential election will take place on April 10 for the first round, the second on April 24.
