Will the Olympic silence be sung with a political undertone? After two weeks of intense negotiations in place to find a President, will the four parties of the National Popular Front (NFP) take a break with the upcoming Olympic Games? “We don’t know anything about it,” he admitted to the PS press service. According to the officials of the parties involved, everything is determined, “minute by minute”, so…
Officially, there is no negotiation meeting scheduled this week, but the PCF knows “representatives who continue to discuss”. In the “artisanal” way, specify PS. “The search for the five-legged sheep has brought scorn to the left recently, it is possible that the coming days will be calmer,” said a member of parliament who wished to remain anonymous.
Laurence Tubiana threw in the towel
In question, the waltz of the names of the candidates in the press, which is far from finally being united within the NFP. So, this Monday morning, Laurence Tubiana, like the former Huguette Bello, threw in the towel to use, noting “that (s)our name meets the opposition”. “We have been rather sensible in our group, because we know that the only possibility for the negotiations to succeed is not to communicate until we have found an agreement within the NFP,” said the group of PCF.
A character line that has never been respected until now. Not a day goes by without a socialist figure, rebel, environmentalist, but also sometimes communist, recounting his feelings to the press. “I fell from my chair”, “You hate me”… New, environmentalist Sandrine Rousseau who, during an interview this Monday morning on RMC-BFMTV, confirmed “(s)’ impatience (r)” .
“Patience and discretion are not common qualities in the French political world,” quips Fabrice Grosfiley, editor on the Brussels news channel Bxl1. Belgian journalists are used to the game of coalitions in his country. “In Belgium, when Real negotiations began and alliances were created to form a government, nothing was filtered by the media, the politicians kept quiet and kept a low profile. Radio silence, no comments!
“The left pretends to negotiate”
Why don’t leftist figures embrace this modus operandi? For Thomas Guénolé, a political scientist who specializes in the left (he works within Insoumis), maybe the whole question is organizational. “The Macron and Le Pen camps, which represent two thirds of the National Assembly, have already announced that they will consider any coalition government of the left with the LFI,” he recalled. So the left already knows that it will not able to rule, but you pretend to be cheap. If you stop pretending, you must also stop claiming victory,” he stressed.
According to him, we are witnessing a real “race to the bottom” because, in the Macronist group, the negotiations are still progressing to be more, but in a more reasonable way. “On the one hand, Emmanuel Macron is waiting for the NFP to fail to propose a Prime Minister to appear to save France by forming his government. On the other hand, NFP omits names to save time. This small game can last a long time,” analyzed Thomas Guénolé.
Especially since the new regime will be wise to take second place in the media after the Olympics. “The question remains who will win this slow race? », Thomas Guénolé asked. Too bad the event is not on the Olympic program, it is a guaranteed gold medal for France.
