Emmanuel Macron " 

still refuses confinement 

" ensures in A

The JDD

.

In recent days, however, many French people had understood the opposite.

But no !

The national reconfinement

not

being " 

not a martingale

 ", it is "no

 longer relevant

 ", assures this weekly, in the columns of which the director general of health finds that the curfew " 

works very well

 " ... everything by declaring that, " 

if the situation really worsens, the whole of the territory could be concerned

 " by "

 more stringent

 "

measures

, says Jérôme Salomon to the

Journal du Dimanche

...

So ?

So the RFI press review giving you what is written in the press, it will be recalled all the same that, no later than last month, this same

JDD

had falsely announced an " 

imminent reconfinement 

" before presenting the following week its apologies to the readers.

As Jean Giraudoux said,

The Trojan War will not take place

...  

Sarko's mole

Nicolas Sarkozy tried for corruption in the "

eavesdropping

 "

affair 

.

The verdict is expected tomorrow.

According to a magistrate of the National Financial Prosecutor's Office, the mole who would have informed the former president would be one of the sons of Simone Veil.

The high magistracy "is 

worried

 " about this latest mole case revealed by

Le Point

, underlines

Le Journal du Dimanche

.

Being reminded that, during the investigation of the " 

wiretapping

 " case, the National Financial Prosecutor's Office had carried out telephone tapping to try to identify the mole who had warned the former president of his wiretapping, the weekly

Le Point

tells us that a deputy prosecutor of the national financial prosecutor's office suspects the former boss of this prosecutor's office Eliane Houlette, of having sought to… protect Nicolas Sarkozy!

Patrice Amar - this is the name of this magistrate - assures him in a letter sent to the Attorney General of Paris.

According to

Le Point

, this deputy prosecutor advances the hypothesis that the informant of Nicolas Sarkozy could be Pierre-François Veil, lawyer close to Thierry Herzog, and youngest son of the former minister Simone Veil.

But then, for what reasons would Eliane Houlette have sought to protect Sarkozy?

According

 to Magistrate Amar's written

guess

", it would have been to protect her daughter and protect herself!

In broad outline, according to this theory, Pierre-François Veil would have had wind of " 

confidential

 " information transmitted - " 

by mistake?

 "- by Eliane Houlette to her daughter on the tapping of Nicolas Sarkozy, which daughter would then have reported these indiscretions to a relative of Pierre-François Veil, who would then have warned his friend Thierry Herzog ...

However, this theory of the deputy prosecutor would hardly have convinced the Attorney General, who decided "

 not to take any legal action on Patrice Amar's letter

 ".

Bolloré, tycoon on the right

Also on the front page, the media ambitions of Vincent Bolloré.

The billionaire, who could, as we saw here yesterday, also be sent back to correctional for acts of corruption in Africa, carves out an “ 

empire

 ”, classified on the whole right, in the media in France.

Face full page to

the A

to

the Obs

, Vincent Bolloré is called " 

Citizen Bolloré

 ", in reference to the film of Orson Wells

' Citizen Kane

.

This weekly invites its readers to explain Bolloré's plan "

 to build an ultraconservative media empire 

".

Because after finance, industry, here is Vincent Bolloré launched in the battle for influence.

Media, culture, ideas, Africa, football: it attacks on all fronts 

", explains this magazine, in which a " 

head of the audiovisual sector

 " says that "

Vincent Bolloré is building a right-wing multimedia group.

He is the only one who has the courage to do this in France.

This is the conclusion of his professional life and it will work

”.

Médiavore

 ", Bolloré?

Not so long ago, this Breton tycoon was " 

best known as a container port concessionaire with African regimes and as a pioneer in electric batteries, 

" states

L'Obs.

Africa, precisely.

"

 The fact is little known but the Bolloré group ensures, on behalf of France, the delivery of freight in order to supply the troops in the Sahel and in the Ivory Coast,

reports

L'Obs

".

The benevolence of the Castle is essential for its African affairs because, says a former Elysee, "

if the African heads of state felt any hostility, they would be wary

".

Benevolence of the Château?

So goes the Republic ...
