His displayed desire to "ensure the relocation of jobs in France in a sustainable manner", in concert with local authorities, particularly pleased Robin Reda, deputy (Libres!, The movement of Valérie Pécresse) of the 7th district of the Essonne, present alongside Jean Castex: "This visit is a very good sign," says the parliamentarian. Communities, the state and businesses must work hand in hand to ensure recovery. We must fight together so that France remains a land of production and innovation. "
Carole Mossant, Director of Human Resources at X-Fab, is not only "proud" of this visit from a man whom she considers "attentive, very open and accessible". "We are waiting for financial support to get through this crisis which will be complicated over the next two years," she says, once Jean Castex has already left for Paris. The future will tell if it has been heard.
