The candidate of the "Remontada" will not go further.
Arnaud Montebourg's entourage told AFP on Tuesday that the former Minister of Productive Recovery under Hollande is about to announce the withdrawal of his candidacy for the presidential election.
Last week, Le Parisien revealed that he was seriously considering joining Christiane Taubira, once it was officially launched.
However, it has been done since last Saturday.
The former Keeper of the Seals announced from Lyon that she was entering the presidential race.
"Montebourg is currently negotiating the essential points of its own program"
Has an agreement since been reached with his former government colleague, when a recent poll put Arnaud Montebourg at 1% of voting intentions in the first round of the presidential election?
“Montebourg is looking for the best outcome for him, a member of the candidate's team whispered a few days ago.
The two personalities know each other well and appreciate each other.
Taubira supported Montebourg during the left-wing primary of 2011. Be careful, everything can still change.
But Montebourg is currently negotiating the essential points of its own program which it would like to see included in that of Taubira.
