Bruno Retailleau and Damien Abad, presidents of LR groups in the Senate and the National Assembly, and François-Xavier Bellamy, president of the French EPP delegation to the European Parliament, sent a letter to the President of the Republic on Friday: "
Confinement creates a particular constraint for believers.
Because they have always since the start of the epidemic shown great civic sense;
because many of them have difficulty living this moment, especially among the Catholics of France who after the Nice attack are once again tried and bereaved;
because the Republic has made freedom of worship a fundamental freedom;
we ask you to reconsider the decisions taken and to accept that a safe and controlled exercise of worship be put in place.
"
