The protests against the extension of the health pass have highlighted the debate on freedom.

What is freedom within the French Republic?

Annabelle Pena, constitutional expert, replies: “It means that we are free within the limits of what is imposed on us by living in society.

"

The law is therefore the framework for freedom: “For example, the freedom to move with a vehicle.

This freedom, you don't have it.

You only have it when you have a driver's license.

"These laws are decided by the Parliament, which is itself supervised by the Constitutional Council which checks that the Constitution is respected:" The disagreement which exists today shows that our freedoms work very well, because everyone understood that he had rights.

And everyone today also understands that these rights imply duties.
