The man suspected of having slapped Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday during a trip to the Drôme, will be referred this Thursday for an immediate appearance, the Valence prosecutor announced on Wednesday.

Tuesday, during a trip to Tain-l'Hermitage, in the Drôme, the President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron was slapped by a man present in the crowd.

A gesture condemned by the entire political class, and which seems to be the paroxysm of a rise in violence against elected politicians.
