The leader of the Communist Party Fabien Roussel calls for Nupes to "
accept the choices of each political force
" that compose it and assures that he has no intention of leaving the alliance, he explained on Saturday evening to the AFP.
While a stormy meeting was held on Tuesday between the leaders of Nupes, Fabien Roussel wanted to rectify the remarks that LFI attributed to him, accusing him of having compared the coalition to a ball and chain, and affirmed that he had no intention of leaving Nupes.

"
I actually said that Nupes is for me as much a prospect of hope, because we have built a lot together, but it is also a burden if it pulls us down, if it locks us into unavoidable political constructs.
If you can't say what you think, it's a ball, a straitjacket, a straitjacket
, ”he said.
Take initiatives “together”
“
And when Manuel Bompard said to me:
'
we understood that you want to leave Nupes
'
, I said
'
no!
“”, he pleaded, assuring that he wanted on the contrary to “
expand
” the alliance.
For him, before talking about the European or presidential elections, the Nupes must focus first "
on the historic social movement against pensions
".
He asks "
that we bring together the 250 parliamentarians who signed the shared initiative referendum, that we look beyond the Nupes and that we take initiatives together
" to continue the social battle.
