Europe 1 19:52 p.m., March 24, 2023

Labour Minister Olivier Dussopt returned to the heated debates in the National Assembly on the pension reform, finally adopted in Parliament after the rejection of two motions of censure. At the microphone of Pierre de Vilna, he said he had been a little ill during the three weeks of debate, which did not prevent him from defending the government project in the hemicycle.

It is with a small voice that Olivier Dussopt, the Minister of Labour, answered the questions of Pierre de Vilno in Europe 1 Soir week-end. The former member of the Socialist Party defended the pension reform, just adopted in pain in Parliament at the microphone of Europe 1, being "a little sick, accumulating bronchitis, laryngitis and other joyousness," he said. "As I sometimes say, laryngitis is more effective at silencing me than France rebellious!" said Olivier Dussopt. "And another advantage is that it happens faster," he quipped.
