After the snub of the breach of the Australian arms contract, the Franco-American reconciliation continues with the trip of Kamala Harris to Paris. Olivier Piton, United States Specialist and Former Associate at the United States Embassys, is the guest of JT from 23 Hours.
The Vice President of the United States arrived in France on the evening of Wednesday, November 10. “The American media are not yet talking about reconciliation and they have spoken of this displacement by evoking its factual side. They recalled the reasons for the dispute between France and the United States, but it did not receive significant media coverage. It is obvious that the dispute remains, Kamala Harris remains for five days in France “, explains Olivier Piton, specialist in the United States and former collaborator at the Embassy of the United States.
The role of the vice-president american will also demonstrate that his country can recreate the link with its allies. “The step is quite high and on both sides there will be expectations. On the French side, there will be the need to settle the dispute and the Americans will want to prove that the Trump page has been turned. The vice-president does what the president dictates, it is always the president who is master of the executive. But it is important for the Biden administration to show that the connection with allied countries is still present “, adds Olivier Pitonot.
