“Let’s debate in front of our fellow citizens” on television, suggests Anne Hidalgo

Will there be a primary on the left? In any case, this is what wishes the presidential candidate Anne Hidalgo. “Let us debate in front of our fellow citizens, let us assume together to come and present our proposals, to bring out the convergences and the differences”, she said Friday, December 17 to the press in Paris. This debate would precede the primary on the left which she again called for, shortly after the announcement by Christiane Taubira of her possible candidacy.
