A position supported on Twitter by Jean-Luc Mélenchon and Louis Boyard, and in opposition to the rest of the reactions of the political class. Quickly, there was indignation even within the Nupes itself. Indignant reactions right up to the head of government.
Some deputies took more distance
For its part, La France insoumise assumes its position. “The spiral of violence can only be stopped if there is a political solution to this conflict, a solution which in international law is based on the creation of two States., indicates Arnaud Le Gall, LFI-NUPES deputy for Val-d’Oise. Note that certain deputies, such as François Ruffin, distanced themselves more from the official press release, directly and firmly condemning the abuses committed by Hamas.
