When you don’t know, it’s better to say it right away. On this point, Valérie Pécresse excels. We are not talking about her entire program or the questions she was asked during the last debates in which she was present, but rather the last interview given to Apolline de Malherbe on RMC this Monday, March 28.
Indeed, in front of the journalist, the candidate of the Republicans was questioned on various subjects and in particular the war in Ukraine. The journalist wanted to have the opinion of the candidate for the 2022 presidential election on the way in which it is necessary, or not, to continue to collaborate economically with Russia. For this, Apolline de Malherbe then asked: “Should Auchan stores stay in Russia, or withdraw?”. To which Valérie Pécresse replied calmly: “It’s up to them to decide, but I think it would be wise today for companies that have the shoulders to do so to withdraw from Russia”.
A slight chill
A pole extended to the journalist who wasted no time in grabbing it. “But Auchan has the shoulders to withdraw from Russia?”she then asks him before the one who contracted Covid-19 on March 24 replies: “I do not know”.
A response far from satisfying Apolline de Malherbe who then put Valérie Pécresse in the role of Head of State to ask her if she would demand “Auchan to take its responsibilities?”. A possibility for the LR candidate but on one condition. “If it has the capacity and if it does not result in laying off all of its employees. I would not tell all companies in France to stop doing business with Russia. I think that we must also think of the employees of these companies”she concluded.
