Eric Zemmour wants to recover those disappointed with Valérie Pécresse's victory at the Congress of Republicans. He makes insistent foot calls to the voters of Eric Ciotti. Sunday, during his meeting, the ex-polemicist repeated on his leaflets the slogan of the deputy of the Alpes-Maritimes: "So that France remains France". Yesterday, an evening was organized in Paris entitled "The Republicans with Zemmour". A sign of the importance given to this objective, the candidate has come himself.

Seduction mission for Éric Zemmour.

The presidential candidate tries to recover those disappointed with Valérie Pécresse's victory at the Congress of Republicans.

And, the ex-polemicist, eyeing in particular the voters of Eric Ciotti, close to him ideologically.

Sunday, during his meeting in Villepinte, the ex-polemicist made them insistent appeals of the foot, resuming on his leaflets the identity slogan of the deputy of the Alpes-Maritimes "So that France remains France".

Yesterday evening, Eric Zemmour left to meet these "Ciottistes", who participated in an evening in Paris entitled "The Republicans with Zemmour". 

The Republicans, a party that has become "too centrist"

More than 300 sympathizers were gathered on this barge on the banks of the Seine.

Among them, unsurprisingly, voters of Eric Ciotti at the Congress of Republicans.

More surprisingly, the former president of the Youth with Barnier was present, even as Valérie Pécresse is visiting the former Brexit negotiator in Savoie today.

The organizer of the evening Eddy Casterman, inset LR and elected rural of the North, is among those who push to take the step from Ciotti to Zemmour.

"Valérie Pécresse won the congress. She is on a center-right line which is not mine. And that's why today, I support Eric Zemmour", he declares at the microphone Europe 1. "LR executives no longer embody right-wing ideas at all, but ideas which have become completely centrist", he laments. 

To encourage rallies, Eric Zemmour himself appeared in the middle of the evening.

He addressed a few words to them, very harsh towards LR, according to him a "retiree party" and ended his speech with "I need you".

Difficult to be clearer.
