Valls “appreciates” Glucksmann but finds him “still very far from a sense of responsibility”

2024-04-11T09:12:36.939Z

Highlights: Valls praises Glucksmann for his “freshness” and “sincerity” but criticizes him for his vote against the asylum and migration pact in the European Parliament. “We are still very far from the sense of responsibility of those who aspire tomorrow to govern,” Valls said. The social-democrat MEP is in fact credited with 12% of voting intentions, according to the latest Ifop-Fiducial study for Le Figaro, LCI and Sud Radio, propelling him to third place. The former socialist, who spent time in the macronie, still wanted to emphasize “his positions on Ukraine’ and his popularity in the polls, says Valls, who prefers to “nuance[r]” his support for the third man in the EU elections. He said: “In public opinion there is a need to support a left, come on, we will call it reformist against the madness of excesses, verbal violence, the anti-Semitism of La France insoumise”


If the former prime minister recognizes “freshness” and “sincerity” at the head of the socialist list, he criticizes him for his vote against the asylum and migration pact in the European Parliament.


He “appreciates”

,

“unquestionably”

. But, if Manuel Valls praises

“a form of freshness and sincerity”

in Raphaël Glucksmann, the former prime minister forgives him less for his opposition to the pact on asylum and immigration. Adopted on Wednesday in the European Parliament, the reform of the European migration system comprises ten texts. While the group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats, to which the head of the list Place Publique and PS belong, supports the pact, the French socialists voted against the vast majority of the texts.

“This text, which was supposed to respond to the chaos of European migration policies, imposes filtering and repressive measures on entry but does not impose solidarity and a common migration policy,”

explained Raphaël Glucksmann on March 29 on France Info.

“Very far from the sense of responsibility”

An insufficient justification for Manuel Valls, who therefore prefers to

“nuance[r]”

his support for the third man in the European elections.

“The fact that Raphaël Glucksmann and French socialists did not vote yesterday for the migration pact, voted for by all the European socialists [...] who govern, clearly shows that we are still very far from the sense of responsibility of those who aspire tomorrow to govern”
