“The police, the gendarmes deserve respect. They do a courageous, difficult job and risk their lives at every moment. Insulting them dishonors those who want to govern. Let the investigations be done without using them as hostages of an electoral campaign”replied the Minister of the Interior Gérald Darmanin.
Marine Le Pen for her part denounced the words “incredibly serious” by Jean-Luc Melenchon, “a few days from his political retirement”.
“He therefore chooses dishonor by breaking definitively with the values of the French Republic”added the leader of the National Rally. “These are words unworthy of someone who claims to want to govern France”reacted for his part Stéphane Le Foll, socialist mayor of Le Mans and former minister of François Hollande.
