During the 2022 presidential campaign, Éric Zemmour was criticized for his lack of compassion for Ukrainian refugees at the start of the Russian invasion. “Without doubt the mistake that cost me the most”, he analyzed retrospectively in his book “I have not said my last word” (Rubempré). Not enough to change it one iota on the migrants who arrive in their thousands on the Italian island of Lampedusa, where the head of the Reconquest list for the Europeans Marion Maréchal went.
For the president of Reconquête, guest this Sunday September 17 on “BFM Politique” on BFMTV in partnership with Le Parisien – Today in France, migrants must also be described as “invaders”.
“I have compassion and empathy for the French people”
“These people are not victims. They are entrepreneurs in exile. These are people capable of paying 5,000 euros, 10,000 euros per passage. (…) We must stop victimizing these people,” he insists, expressing no emotion for often very difficult human situations. “I have compassion and empathy for the French people who are being invaded and who risk being drowned (…) by a completely enormous population, by another people,” he assumes.
A very harsh speech also given by the president of the Italian council Giorgia Meloni who promised a “naval blockade” during the Italian legislative elections. Asked about the gap between the firmness of his positions and his action and record on migration matters, Éric Zemmour did not wish to overwhelm the head of the Italian government with whom he would like to get closer in the European Parliament.
“Italy depends enormously on the huge loan that the European Commission made to give it money. So she’s a little cautious. The European Commission is carrying out financial blackmail against Italy,” laments the president of Reconquête, who adds: “Madame Meloni is not in our situation: the immigrants you see do not stay in Italy. (…) They go to France for social benefits and to England if they want to work. (…) Madame Meloni does not have the same problem as us. » Which does not prevent him from concluding paradoxically that, on the migration issue, “all of Europe is in mortal danger”.
