We “cannot claim to be in love with France and deny to this extent what we are”, reacted Emmanuel Macron in front of relatives, after Eric Zemmour’s comments on disability, learned franceinfo this Sunday, confirming information from the newspaper The Parisian.

France is “a united, humanist nation, which neither divides nor stigmatises. A nation which, beyond political sensitivities, has always known how to make differences a wealth and a strength”, added the head of state.

Friday, during a discussion with teachers committed to his cause in Honnecourt-sur-Escaut (North), Eric Zemmour explained “to think that we actually need specialized establishments, except for people with slight disabilities of course”, before qualifying his remarks the next day.

“Not a week has gone by where I haven’t fought, especially to allow these children to go to school like the others”, continued Emmanuel Macron in private.
