He regrets nothing.
The polemicist and presidential candidate persists and signs on the subject of unaccompanied foreign minors.
Invited on the set of RMC / BFMTV this Tuesday morning, Éric Zemmour returned to his conviction of the day before to a fine of 10,000 euros for "provocation to hatred", after a statement made in 2020 on CNews: "They don't nothing to do here, they're thieves, they're murderers, they're rapists, that's all they are”.

“I absolutely do not regret having pronounced this sentence” he explained, this Tuesday, even ensuring that his position on unaccompanied foreign minors was “humanist”.
“I think I am the object of political justice,” he also argued.
According to Éric Zemmour, justice would even like to “prohibit him from speaking not only of immigration, but of linking immigration to delinquency and insecurity”.
The day before, he had already announced, in a press release, his intention to appeal the decision of the Paris Criminal Court, denouncing an “ideological and stupid” decision.
A “theatrical” indignation
The presidential candidate was decidedly ready to assume everything on Tuesday.
Since beyond the words for which he was convicted at first instance, he also explained that he did not regret his polemical sentence on disabled children.
Last Friday, during a trip to the North, he explained that we needed “specialized establishments that take care of it.
Except people who are obviously slightly handicapped, who can enter the class.
But for the rest, the obsession with inclusion is a bad way for other children, and for those children who are, the poor, completely overwhelmed by the others.

A statement that had aroused many reactions, on the right and on the left.
“For parents of disabled children, it is a pain not to see their children with others, I understand very well”, he first admitted on RMC / BFMTV this Tuesday morning.
But “there are disabled children for whom it is a suffering to be in the midst of others” and “it is not up to the parents to judge”, he said.
Faced with his remarks last Friday, all members of the political class were "artificially indignant, theatrically", also criticized Éric Zemmour, even ensuring that the government was making "savings on the backs of disabled children".
