Many French people are fighting on the front line against the virus. The whole country is indebted to them. Find every Saturday the selection of FigaroVox: deciphering, points of view and controversies.


Dear subscribers,

True courage is "a form of professional conscience" (Pierre Hamp). This beautiful formula, cited by the historian Marc Bloch in L'étrange Défaite , has seen its relevance verified these days in France. Doctors, nurses, stretcher bearers and firefighters display a magnificent selflessness. Police and gendarmes do their duty most often without masks. Workers, farmers, truckers, bakers and butchers, supermarket workers and so many others meet the basic needs of the population. City dwellers and workers in the tertiary sector open their eyes to the immense work that is being done every day around them. Used to being served, they often forgot it. May, once the ordeal has been overcome, the French keep in mind how much they depend on each other.

Happy reading and have a great weekend!
