François Hollande responded to Eric Zemmour’s accusations on Saturday, November 13, after the polemicist accused him of not having “nothing done” to prevent the attacks of November 2015. During a trip to Bordeaux on Friday, the possible presidential candidate referred to the trial of the jihadist attacks in Paris and Saint-Denis, during which the former head of state was auditioned as a witness. “Our media did not accept one of his statements: ‘We knew that in the flow of refugees there were terrorists. But we didn’t know where, when, or how they were going to hit us. ‘ (…) The government was aware of the danger and it preferred that the French die rather than prevent migrants from coming to France “, said Eric Zemmour, in a speech transcribed on his Twitter account.
“I made decisions, and the meaning of my decisions was to ensure the safety and protection of our fellow citizens, to fight against Islamist terrorism and to ensure the unity of our country, that it reacts like a block, let there be no fracture, break, reacted François Hollande on Saturday, with BFMTV. All the polemics, which are knowingly maintained, have only one goal: to prevent us from being coherent, united in the face of this tragedy. “
“I ask that each and every one of them live up to what these civil parties, these victims express: not a need for revenge, but a need for justice, not the concern for division and overbidding, but truth and clarity while being unity in mind “, insisted the former head of state.
