Éric Dupond-Moretti did not mince his words Saturday night on France 2. The Keeper of the Seals and Minister of Justice was the guest of Léa Salamé in the program "Quelle époque!". As is customary for politicians, the journalist offered him to play the game of the photocall. Photos of celebrities are displayed and the guest must say the question he would like to ask them. After the images of Robert Badinter, Christiane Taubira and Emmanuel Macron, Marine Le Pen appeared on the screens. "What question would you ask him?" the reporter asked the minister. To which he replied: "Who do you prefer: Petain or Putin?" eliciting a wave of reactions on the set.

A little earlier, Léa Salamé had already questioned Éric Dupond-Moretti about the National Rally. She had asked him what he would say to the French who would tell him "We tried the left, we tried the right, we tried the center with Macron, nothing worked and suddenly, we will try Marine Le Pen". The former lawyer retorted to the journalist: "I would tell them that she is the transmission belt of the Kremlin as a parliamentary report says... For abortion, she spoke for a moment of "comfort abortion", she wanted to leave the Euro and then stay there... She wants real perpetuity, that's one of her mantras, it already exists... This is also the sentence to which Abdeslam Salah was sentenced.
»« This gesture, it is stupid, it was devastating (...) I regret it. »
Éric Dupond-Moretti on his arm of honor addressed to Olivier Marleix, president of the group Les Républicains.
The journalist then pointed to the fact that the National Rally has never been so high and that it had beaten the Minister of Justice in the last regional elections "because they are strong, the French hear them," she said. "Populists always win over you because they promise you the moon," said Éric Dupond-Moretti. The latter also returned to the recent controversial outings of the National Rally. "There is an RN deputy who addresses a deputy of La France Insoumise who is black and tells him 'Go back to Africa!' , that was six months ago...", he says.

Léa Salamé took advantage of the presence of the Minister of Justice to ask him if he had any regrets. "Is there anything you wouldn't do again, like an arm of honor?" she said, referring to the gesture he had addressed on March 7 to Olivier Marleix, president of the group Les Républicains. "You have the image but you don't have the sound," he replied to the reporter. When I do that, I say, "That's how you dealt with the presumption of innocence." This gesture, it is stupid, it was devastating (...) I regret it but, at the same time, it was not insulting. (...) It was not to be done, I would not do it again. »
