Emmanuel Macron will visit the site of the Dunkirk Aluminum plant on Friday. The President of the Republic will take the opportunity to recall the efforts of recent years to revive this pool of jobs.
He will not come empty-handed, with the formalization with great fanfare of a fourth battery factory for electric cars by the Taiwanese group ProLogium. The factory should generate 3,000 new jobs in the region, according to the Taiwanese company, which is based in Taipei. The French government has been trying to reindustrialize the country since the 1970s.
