The ministers arrived on Place de la Concorde, one by one, duly masked, as if the wearing of the protective rectangle was the key demanded of any guest on this static July 14. We were about twenty minutes from the start of the ceremony.
And then at the foot of the tribune, where the official cars dropped them off, a red jacket suddenly waved, great gestures of the arms, nervous back and forth, colleagues caught witness to his distress.
Agnes Pannier-Runacher, Minister Delegate for Industry, had reason to be panicked. She hid her face in her hands. Showed the vehicle that had just brought it in, too quickly gone, was even trying to catch it. She had forgotten her precious mask there.
Fortunately, an attentive and charitable colleague immediately came to save her from this bad step. She handed him something to comply with the barrier gesture that the Castex government had chosen to give as an example on this National Day. A grain of sand in this parade set to the millimeter.
