Léon Deffontaines is the head of the communist list of the United Left for the European elections. While the PCF voted against Ceta, the candidate believes that this type of free trade agreement "goes against the grain of history" on an environmental level but also socially with regard to French farmers.

“Today free trade agreements go against the Grain of history” believes Deffonaines. The head of communist list is the guest of Sonia Mabrouk.
