“There is also a fact: we did not win the legislative elections. It is not abnormal for someone who is not from our political family to lead the government,” he adds.
“A Cycle Ends”
Very pleased with the security record of the Paris Olympics and its action over four years on Place Beauvau, Gérald Darmanin claims that “Inside, a cycle undeniably ends after the success of the Games”.
Will he leave the country before the Paralympic Games (August 28-September 8)? The person in question replies that the decision belongs to the head of state. “It's normal to install a new government after the election,” he slips. “The president must choose, but the governing parties must also agree to govern. Sometimes we get the impression that politicians no longer want to govern for fear of difficulties.”
Regarding the second edition of the “Tourcoing Meeting”, in which he recovered politically, he explains that “you must have more ambition for your country than for yourself. This requires action, but also ideas.”
