“For weeks, since the primary, she has been leading campaigns other than the presidential campaign” of environmentalists. Presidential candidate Yannick Jadot lamented on Friday the “interference”, “for weeks”, of the finalist of the environmental primary Sandrine Rousseau.
In an article published by The Parisian Thursday evening, Sandrine Rousseau castigated a “fuzzy” campaign speech, “a mess”, remarks however formally denied by the person concerned to AFP.
“I made the decision to assert discipline”
For Yannick Jadot, who said on Public Sénat “to take note of yet another position which is not that of the campaign”, this exclusion of Sandrine Rousseau “is a form of clarification after weeks and weeks of interference “, which “is not compatible” in his eyes “with the loyalty, with the political line” of the environmental pole.
“I made the decision to assert discipline,” added Yannick Jadot, ensuring “collective play”, unlike, according to him, Sandrine Rousseau. Yannick Jadot finally lamented that Sandrine Rousseau, finalist in the environmental primary in September 2021, is thinking “of the legislative elections” or even wishes to “conquer” EELV in the coming months.
Thomas Portes, who was Sandrine Rousseau’s spokesperson during the environmental primary, before joining the campaign of the rebellious Jean-Luc Mélenchon, sent him Thursday evening on twitter “(his) support and (his) friendship “.
The former EELV regional councilor of Ile-de-France and municipal councilor in Montreuil, Pierre Serne, also expressed his support on Thursday evening.
