One of the members of the security team grabbed the individual by the hair and neck after he questioned the President of the Republic on the "thermal renovation plan".


The President's inaugural visit to the Salon de l'Agriculture this Sunday is obviously under high vigilance.

After a first attack by an environmental activist at midday, Emmanuel Macron was again challenged about the climate by an individual who was abruptly pushed back by the security service.

According to a FranceInfo

journalist

who witnessed the scene, the young man, a few meters from the Head of State, shouted: “

The thermal renovation plan, Mr. President!

".

He would then have been tackled to the ground by the bodyguards and evacuated.

On videos posted on social networks, we see, in the confusion of the scene which occurred around 3 p.m. and which lasts only a few seconds, the young man being violently grabbed by the hair and the neck.

This is not the first incident for the French president during this visit to the Parc des Expositions.

Earlier this Sunday, an activist from the "

Last renovation

" collective called on the head of state to "

listen to scientific reports

" on climate change.

You are the demonstration of a form of civic violence

”, sharply retorted Emmanuel Macron, deploring that the activist refuses the “

debate

”.

In 2017, during his first presidential campaign, Emmanuel Macron was targeted by an egg jet that exploded on his head.
