In its edition of Wednesday March 27,
Le Canard chainé
ensures that Malika Sorel, number 2 on the RN list for the European elections, had sent, several weeks in a row, SMS messages to the President of the Republic.
Contacted by
Le Figaro
, Emmanuel Macron's entourage does not deny the SMS revealed by the satirical weekly.
According to comments reproduced by Le
Canard chainé
, Malika Sorel would have made appeals to the Head of State to become Minister of National Education.
The weekly presents five messages, sent between January 16 and February 8.
The last one stating this:
“If you struggle so much for the casting, know that I co-directed the Education-research group of alumni of sciences po Paris”
.
“I assume”
This Tuesday, March 26, Malika Sorel was on stage at the Maison de la Chimie, in Paris, in the company of Jordan Bardella and major elected officials and executives of the RN, to participate in the "general states of immigration" that the party the flame organized.
Questioned at the end of the conference by several journalists about the article in Le
Canard Enchainé
, the former close friend of François Fillon assumes, in part, the revelations of the weekly.
She still tells a slightly different story:
“I accept it.
I had discussions with Emmanuel Macron in December.
That is to say, someone gave me his cell phone, begged me to call him to make him listen to reason because he believed that Emmanuel Macron was making decisions against the interests of France. and of the French people, which I also think.”
Malika Sorel affirms that the head of state “
has recovered some elements of language for his wishes to the French.
I have these text messages which show that he recovered part of these exchanges.
She then explains that she
“gave a certain number of elements to make him understand that what he was doing was contrary to what should be his action in the service of France.”
“I reiterated my desire to help France”
Did she formally ask to become a minister?
“I reiterated my desire to help France, in particular on education issues, because this is the subject that I had to raise for François Fillon
,” she replied without giving further details.
Would she have agreed to join the government?
“Emmanuel Macron is not absolutely on my side.
He is on an anti-Republican line, he accepts it.
And so I had absolutely nothing to do with Emmanuel Macron,”
assures Malika Sorel.
In his interview with Le
Figaro
, the former member of the High Council for Integration did not have words harsh enough to describe the presidency of Emmanuel Macron which
“shrivelled France”.
“He is no longer in a position to teach others while his own country faces growing security chaos.”
The essayist claims that the last message she claims to have sent to Emmanuel Macron said that
“De Gaulle had Couve de Murville and André Malraux at his side and that Emmanuel Macron had Stéphane Séjourné (...) and Rachida at his side. Dati»
.
And to conclude with:
“Mr.
President, I cannot imagine that you are insensitive and indifferent to the image that you will leave in the history of France.
Are you going to act or not?”
According to Malika Sorel, Jordan Bardella knew
"perfectly that I have always wanted and want to serve France: so everything is clear, I am a woman who always speaks clearly, who takes responsibility for everything she has done."
The entourage of the president of the RN sees no problem there.
“Macron should have taken it to the government
,” we reply, convinced of the sincerity of Malika Sorel.
