The passing of arms between the Minister of the Interior and the First Secretary of the Socialist Party continues. During a press conference at the National Assembly, this Wednesday afternoon, Olivier Faure denounced a "serious fault" of Christophe Castaner for having mentioned his private life against the background of the Griveaux case.
"Christophe Castaner has committed a serious fault," said the First Secretary of the PS during a press conference at the National Assembly, asking Emmanuel Macron "to summon the Minister of the Interior as soon as possible and to draw the consequences ”.
"A red line has been crossed"
Wednesday morning, at the microphone of France Inter, Christophe Castaner attacked Olivier Faure: "I was surprised to hear at your microphone Olivier Faure, whom I know well, and whom I accompanied in his separations and in his divorces. I was amazed at his moral lessons, "said the Minister of the Interior. The minister reacted to the words of Olivier Faure who had denounced the day before the "incredible lightness" of Benjamin Griveaux. The latter withdrew his candidacy for mayor of Paris, last Friday, after the dissemination of videos of a sexual nature implicating him.
