“I fear that the government will let the situation deteriorate so that we will have unpleasant images with arrests, farmers who degrade to perhaps discredit the movement”declared Wednesday January 31 Edwige Diaz, vice-president of the National Rally. “I hope the government doesn’t play that card.”
The member for Gironde, who affirms “support the farmers’ movement”reacts to their mobilization while on Wednesday 79 farmers were arrested at the Rungis market where they had just entered. “Tensions are increasing because the government is not responding to the crisis”adds the MP who asks the State “to provide precise, rapid and effective answers because for the moment we cannot be satisfied with the measures provided by Gabriel Attal”.
We must put in place “an agricultural exception”
Concerning these answers, the MP is sure that the government has them but that“he does not want to put them on the table because these are solutions recommended by the RN”. She details: “I am thinking of protective measures against unfair competition, calling into question free trade agreements, decreeing normative sobriety and facilitating the transfer of farms within the framework of family farms”.
Edwige Diaz thinks that it is necessary to put in place “an agricultural exception” And “protect our agriculture”. According to her, “we cannot expose it to unfair international competition and for that we must apply economic patriotism”. Finally, the MP wishes that “agriculture must not be sacrificed on the altar of globalism”.
