Xavier Iacovelli, vice-president of the RDPI group in the Senate, Renaissance senator of Hauts-de-Seine, is the political guest of franceinfo, Friday September 27.
Raphaël Glucksmann calls for reconstituting a governing left, a social-democratic left. “I have no problem with all progressives coming together”assures Xavier Iacovelli, vice-president of the RDPI group in the Senate, Renaissance senator from Hauts-de-Seine, guest of franceinfo, Friday September 27. “All progressives must be able to build something, an alternative both to Melenchonism and both to the extreme right and this requires an alliance with the central bloc”he elaborates.
“We are pro-Europeans, we are progressives. Of course there are points in common between the central bloc and social democracy,” argues Xavier Iacovelli. “Today, the government is on borrowed time because the National Rally is threatening censorship, because indeed, the socialists refuse to work and sit around a table with the central bloc”he regrets.
