The Prime Minister declared that the fight against anti-Semitism is “vital for our national cohesion”.

Élisabeth Borne estimated on Sunday that “postures have no place» in the march against anti-Semitism this afternoon in Paris, in which she will participate because “this fight is vital for our national cohesion“.

This remark targets both La France Insoumise including “absence speaks for itself» and the National Rally whose “presence fools no one», Specified the Prime Minister in a message on X (formerly Twitter).

The RN will participate in this large march organized at the call of the presidents of the National Assembly and the Senate, Yaël Braun-Pivet and Gérard Larcher, which aroused the anger of left-wing groups and the majority given the anti-Semitic past of the party co-founded by Jean-Marie Le Pen.

LFI decided to boycott this demonstration precisely in response to the presence of the RN. But the message of the radical left party on anti-Semitism is confused by several positions considered ambiguous by its leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon.

One of its deputies David Guiraud sparked a political storm on Saturday by appearing to minimize the massacres committed on October 7 by the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas in Israel.
