Manuel Bompard, the national coordinator of France Insoumise and deputy for Marseille, was the guest of “8h30 franceinfo”, Friday February 9, 2024. Reshuffle, media return from Adrien Quatennens, rebellious at LFI… He answered questions from Jean-Rémi Baudot and Agathe Lambret.

Reshuffle: “I’m worried about my country”

“I’m worried about my countrydeclared on franceinfo Manuel Bompard, questioned about the continuation of the reshuffle announced Thursday by the executive. I say it frankly, when I see this shaky team in which you find fanaticized Macronists and mercenaries without principle and without conviction.”

If the Bouches-du-Rhône MP welcomes the departure of Amélie Oudéa-Castéra from the Ministry of National Education, Manuel Bompard believes that the choice of Nicole Belloubet to replace her is not the right one. “I don’t understand the political coherence of these people who are capable of saying one thing and a few months or years later join a government to do the opposite“, denounces the national coordinator of France Insoumise.

Media feedback from Adrien Quattenens: “He made a mistake, he admitted it”

Asked about the media return this week of LFI deputy from the North Adrien Quatennens, sentenced in December 2022 to four months in prison for domestic violence, Manuel Bompard considered that the return of Adrien Quatennens was legitimate.

“The words he said show that he has also evolved on this subject. I think it’s a good thing to say to ourselves that when we made a mistake, when we made an error, he recognized. It’s also important that there can be a rehabilitation process.”

“He is a talented deputy, continues the LFI deputy. He makes proposals and leads the battle in the National Assembly. And yes, of course he will continue to do so.“

Israel under neutral banner at the Olympics: “If we have to sanction the athletes, since we did it for Russia, let’s do it”

“If we have to sanction athletes, since we did it for Russia, let’s do it“, declares Manuel Bompard, questioned about Adrien Quatennens’ controversial proposal to have Israeli athletes compete under a neutral banner at the Paris Olympic Games.

“France must do more“to obtain a ceasefire in the Middle East, asks the rebellious MP on franceinfo denouncing”“unbearable double talk” of the French government on this subject.

“Generally speaking, I am not very comfortable with the sanction against athletes, but from the moment Russian athletes were sanctioned because of the war that had been started by Russia against Ukraine, it was legitimate. effectively to raise the question of possible sanctions against Israeli athletes.”

At the beginning of December, the International Olympic Committee announced that it would authorize Russian athletes to participate under a neutral banner in the 2024 Olympics.
