The French National Assembly is back on Tuesday, September 10, 2019, as well as the insubordinate leader of France, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who should meet his colleagues after a summer in Latin America. Absent for almost two months, he took the opportunity to forget the setbacks of his political formation.
Comfort and a new breath, that's what Jean-Luc Mélenchon went to look for in Latin America. During these two months, he did not read the French newspapers nor turned on radio or television. This did not prevent him from commenting sometimes French news on social networks.
Conferences and meetings
The MP was not on vacation because he gave lectures and met with many leaders and former leftist leaders, including Lula, whom he visited in prison. Jean-Luc Mélenchon says he " drew energy " from all his interlocutors and he has also found a new battle: the denunciation of " political trials ".
In the company of 200 personalities, including the former Brazilian president or the Argentinian Nobel Peace Prize winner Adolfo Perez Esquivel, he signed a tribune published Saturday, September 7, on the Journal du Dimanche , denouncing " the instrumentalization of justice to eliminate the political competitors ". And to quote the case of Lula, the Egyptian lawyer Massoum Marzouk, the Cameroonian opponent Maurice Kamto ... but also that of Jean-Luc Mélenchon himself.
The insubordinate leader of France must be judged on 19 and 20 September, for rebellion, intimidation against the judicial authority and provocation during the eventful search at the headquarters of his party in October 2018.
" Amalgam unbearable and unacceptable "
For the French Minister of Justice, Nicole Belloubet, the denunciation by Jean-Luc Mélenchon is an " unbearable and unacceptable amalgam ", she said Monday, September 9 on France Inter . " I was pretty stunned, frankly. Because when you look, you find France, with Melenchon, placed exactly next to Russia and Cambodia. It seems to me that there is a small nuance between the independence that is real in France and what is happening in Russia or what is happening in other countries, "she said.
