“We need absolute, total firmness” in this migratory crisis, argues Olivier Marleix, president of the LR group in the National Assembly and deputy for Eure-et-Loir, on franceinfo this Tuesday, after 8,500 people arrived in three days on the Italian island of Lampedusa.

“France does not have to welcome” these migrants. It is “a question of the signal we send“. The one who is also a member of the national defense commission and the armed forces believes that there is a “flaw in the claimed firmness” from the Minister of the Interior.

A few seconds later, Olivier Marleix, asked about the possibility of a law to regularize undocumented workers, said: “It’s a joke“. According to him, this would create a “air call“.”It’s a joke“, because the “current law allows this to be done“, he adds. This article 3 is “useless“.
