Moved to tears, Agnès Buzyn leaves the Ministry of Health. The now LREM candidate for mayor of Paris displayed her sadness during her handover speech with her successor Olivier Véran.
"Leaving this ministry is a heartbreak," assured Agnès Buzyn, who takes over from Benjamin Griveaux for the municipal elections in Paris.
"I have often said this ministry is that of building the link," she said, paying tribute to the staff. "I wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart."
In particular, she paid tribute to her successor who was present at her side. "I know you're ready. Your appointment is not a surprise, ”she said about the doctor who is like her.
"Paris needs kindness"
"We both share the same rigor, the same requirement," she added as Olivier Véran arrives in the middle of a coronavirus crisis in particular.
The ex-minister then spoke about the municipal campaign in Paris. "The values that I have worn as minister do not leave me, social justice, the attention paid to the most fragile," assured Agnès Buzyn.
"It's a new start, it all starts now," she continued, applauded at length. "Paris needs appeasement," she further explained the candidate.
