Three months after the presentation of Emmanuel Macron's plan for Marseille, his Prime Minister, Jean Castex, is visiting this Monday in the Phocaean city for two days, officially in order to "take stock with local actors on the deployment ”of this plan.

The Prime Minister will visit the Parc Chanot vaccination center and the Timone hospital this Monday afternoon, all against the backdrop of a latent health crisis linked to Covid-19.

In addition, as

, Jean Castex will sign commitment agreements for the renovation of two cities located in the northern districts of Marseille.

Above all, the Prime Minister has scheduled in his agenda individual talks with the mayor of Marseille Benoît Payan and the president of the metropolis and the department, Martine Vassal.

These meetings take place a week after the adoption by Parliament of a major reform for Marseille.

Indeed, the deputies adopted in the night of Wednesday to Thursday the reform of the governance of Aix-Marseille wanted by Emmanuel Macron within the framework of the plan “Marseilles en grand”. A reform that does not seem to satisfy the mayor of Marseille, who called this change a "farce" in the columns of the

. "This metropolis is being built against its three main cities, Martigues, Aix and Marseille, and will continue to malfunction", insists Benoît Payan to the evening daily.

The visit also comes in the midst of the garbage collectors' strike, in force throughout Marseille since Wednesday.

At the heart of this social conflict, the application of 35 hours in the public service, made compulsory from 2022. A new meeting with the unions, initially scheduled for Tuesday, has also been brought forward to this Monday afternoon, or… on the first day of the Prime Minister's visit.
