Presidential 2022: Fabien Roussel dreams of creating a surprise on the left

2022-01-24T14:03:36.931Z


Less than three months from the first round, the communist candidate wants to take advantage of the confusion on the left to offer "concrete answers" to the French. He presented his program Monday to the press.


In the general din on the left, a little music emerges from the side of the Communist Party. Despite a saturated space, full of candidates, Fabien Roussel manages to make his voice heard. A first victory for the PCF as the party has been marginalized in the past, or even non-existent as in 2012 and 2017 when the party decided to rally Jean-Luc Mélenchon. At the beginning of the year, the candidate was able to benefit from a nice spotlight by proclaiming on France 3 his love for French gastronomy - "

good wine, good meat, good cheese

" - before being faced strong criticism from the radical left, who considered his remarks to be exclusionary.

“The controversy I have been the subject of shows above all thata part of the left never goes beyond the ring road"

, he replied, delighted to point out that he was, unlike the others, rooted in reality.

"I put my feet in the dish, without doing it on purpose!"

, he laughs today.
