Angry residents gathered on Sunday September 26.
A gathering to which Valérie Pécresse was invited.
In front of the cameras of the many journalists present on the spot, she believes that "this wall will not solve the problem".
We must create a "real center for the fight against addictions" to allow crack users "to get off drugs and get off the streets," she adds.
"Creating a wall between Paris and its most popular suburbs means locking up: locking people up in their social situation, in their territories and that is not possible," said Valérie Pécresse.
