Reactions were to be expected. One of them came from the Minister Delegate for Transport. Asked about the interview given by Sabrina Agresti-Roubache, his colleague at the City, to the first edition of the JDD under the leadership of Geoffroy Lejeune, marked on the far right, Clément Beaune distanced himself.
“We can talk about everything, but not with anyone, or at any time,” he reacted to RMC’s microphone on Monday morning. “That’s not the choice I made. Everyone makes their choices consciously,” noted Clément Beaune.
“I am thinking first of all of the JDD journalists, of the readers, who have sometimes lost their JDD: its historical line, its values, its DNA, that’s what I regret,” added the minister, figure of the wing left of the government.
Matignon not warned upstream
The Secretary of State in charge of the City, Sabrina Agresti-Roubache, is the first member of the government to grant an interview to the JDD since its takeover by Geoffroy Lejeune. “Pluralism is accepting confrontation,” she justified in the columns of the weekly, published on Sunday for the first time since a historic 40-day strike.
“Matignon was not warned before this interview,” a source within the executive assured AFP, recalling that “members of the government normally warn before expressing themselves in the media”.
Several left-wing leaders deplored the Secretary of State’s approach, accusing Macron of “accelerating the trivialization” of the newspaper. Conversely, on the National Rally side, several voices from the National Rally welcomed this first publication of the new JDD formula.
