Catherine Nay SEASON 2021 - 202206:00 am, March 30, 2022
Charles de Gaulle and Georges Pompidou is the story of a duo in power, which will gradually turn into a duel.
A relationship placed under the seal of trust between a President and his Prime Minister, between a father and his political son, and which, however, ends in a tragic rupture.
In this “Inseparable” podcast produced by Europe 1 Studio, journalist Catherine Nay, great voice of Europe 1, tells the stories of couples or political duos of the Fifth Republic.
The second part of this episode begins in 1965. The presidential election marks the end of the "honeymoon" between De Gaulle and Pompidou.
Then, until 1970, tensions will increase to the point of no return.
The presidential election of 1965 marked a turning point in the history of the political duo De Gaulle-Pompidou.
The Head of State suggests to his Prime Minister that he might not appear.
However, it is not.
Georges Pompidou is hurt to learn this at the last minute, he who already imagined himself a candidate.
De Gaulle, for his part, takes a dim view of the rise in popularity of Pompidou, who has long remained in his shadow despite his ambitions... In this episode of the "Inseparable" podcast produced by Europe 1 Studio, Catherine Nay recounts the degradation of the relationship between De Gaulle and Pompidou, from the first tensions to the final break.
