Monday, December 4, the Minister of the Interior Gérald Darmanin spoke about the attacker of Bir-Hakeim and spoke of a “psychiatric failure” in its follow-up. Julie Calderon, journalist at the True or False unit of Franceinfo, provides more details on the 19/20 info set. She recalls that the man was undergoing drug treatment until March 2022, before a treatment order last April. “The doctors have given an informed and serious opinion. Unfortunately, current events prove this opinion wrong”, says Maurice Bensoussan, psychiatrist. The doctor warns of potential shortcuts, reminding that psychiatric illness does not always explain the act.
“The situation of psychiatry in France is terrible”
Fethi Benslama, psychoanalyst and honorary professor at Paris Cité University, takes stock of psychiatry in France. “The situation of psychiatry in France is terrible”, he points out. Julie Calderon suggests that 30% of positions in psychiatric hospitals are not filled in France.
