Laurence Bertrand Dorléac, president of the Political Science Foundation (FNSP), tried to defuse the tense situation at Sciences-po Paris. A Jewish student was refused access to a pro-Palestine conference last Tuesday.

“You, you are not coming in! (…) We know you,” some students allegedly told him. The incident immediately caused an uproar in the political class. Gabriel Attal notably made a surprise visit to a meeting of the establishment's board of directors.
