The city of Marseille ready to welcome the “Louise Michel”? In any case, this is what Benoit Payan, first deputy of the new left-wing municipality, argued on Saturday night on Twitter. “We will not leave 219 people between life and death in the Mediterranean. The history of Marseille is quite the opposite. We open our Port if @MVLouiseMichel requests it. Europe and France would honor each other to help them, ”he tweeted.
