“This permanent conflict on all subjects leads to the worst”, estimates Olivier Faure (PS)

Is the divorce finalized with Jean-Luc Mélenchon? “We are not discussing. I have put a moratorium because I consider that on the Israel-Palestine question, there is a form of excess, of divergence which obviously must be resolved”explains Olivier Faure, First Secretary of the Socialist Party, guest of “4 Vérités” on France 2, Tuesday October 31. “I do not want to be accountable for what Jean-Luc Mélenchon says today and we have pressed the pause button, we consider today that we are not in a situation which is likely to make Nupes start again in good conditions”he adds.

“I am for union, but not under any conditions”

Should we go further and record the divorce on Nupes? “I am for the coming together of the left and the ecologists, I am for the union, but not under any conditions. I consider that there are times when we have to bang our fist on the table and explain that everything is not possible and that this permanent conflict on all subjects leads to the worst. […] It is not necessarily useful for the left to seek to demonize itself and give the feeling that it is not up to the moment.”believes Olivier Faure.
