A few months before the presidential elections, the candidates are campaigning and crisscrossing France. Jean-Christophe Galeazzi, journalist France Televisions, presents the movements of the candidates.
The mayor of Paris and PS candidate, Anne Hidalgo, went to Jarnac (Charente) to meditate at the grave of François Mitterrand. The former President of the Republic (1981-1995) was born in the town and is buried there. January 8 also marked the anniversary of his death, 26 years earlier. A visit which would perhaps symbolize Anne Hidalgo’s desire to be inspired by François Mitterrand, first socialist president of the Fifth Republic while she seems to be moving away from her primary project on the left. A desire that has not met with much echo, particularly on the side of environmentalist Yannick Jadot.
Former polemicist Eric Zemmour was present in Sables-d’Olonne (Vendée). The candidate still claims to be the candidate of the French identity. A visit not trivial since in the city, the unbolting of a statue of Saint-Michel was ordered. A statue placed in the public domain, but in front of a church. Éric Zemmour therefore took the opportunity to recall France’s Christian roots.
