Before delivering his speech, the Head of State receives the presidents of the main political parties
According to information from Le Monde, Emmanuel Macron “intends to call on the representatives of the different political parties to unity”. The evening newspaper notes that the position of France Insoumise, which refused to qualify the armed movement of Hamas as terrorist, “is particularly worrying, while the executive fears that the conflict will spread to France”.
Yesterday, at the end of the Council of Ministers chaired by Emmanuel Macron, government spokesperson Olivier Véran pleaded on Wednesday for a “need, in the period, for unity, for cohesion of the nation”.
The President of the Republic should take stock of the discussions between Paris, Washington, Berlin and all Western allies. It should clearly indicate how France intends to influence the process necessary to end the conflicts. Should we create a framework for intervention in the Gaza Strip, with observers from the international community? How to help Israel fight Hamas? How can we help Palestinian civilian populations, particularly via humanitarian corridors?
He should also report on the measures taken by the Interior Ministry to ensure the security of France’s Jews.
