The presence of macronists on Renaud Muselier's LR list for the regions in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur has still not been digested by some.
This is particularly the case of Eric Ciotti, the LR deputy of the Alpes-Maritimes.
In an interview with
Figaro
, the latter even ensures that the outgoing president
"is now one of the candidates of the presidential majority"
, and asks his party to no longer support him.
The LR federation of the Alpes-Maritimes, which he heads, has also withdrawn its support.

Deconfinement: what will change this Wednesday for the French
"The masks have fallen"
“I am not at all surprised by Eric Ciotti's attitude. For me, the masks have fallen but it weakens the region by doing this ”
, underlined Sophie Cluzel, Tuesday, May 18 on France 2. The Secretary of State in charge of People with disabilities called on Eric Ciotti to go
“ to the end ”
:
“He is already an accomplice of the National Rally, well he adheres to it.
It will be much clearer for everyone and we will be able to work for our region ”
.
While she was initially to unite with Renaud Muselier, Sophie Cluzel was finally sidelined. The outgoing LR president accepted fifteen macronists on his list, but he did not want any minister or LREM parliamentarian.
"If my position as minister was a brake, there was no question of slowing down this alliance"
, she assured, adding that
"the presidential majority is represented"
,
"it was important"
.
"Of course it is a list of support for government policy
,
"
said the Secretary of State. Not enough to calm the tensions within the Republicans ...
"I support this list, I think that the collective interest must always take precedence over the individual interest"
, she again wanted to stress. If the idea of an autonomous LREM list was considered, Sophie Cluzel finally quickly decided
"in her heart and soul"
not to enter the race.
