France in the final: between congratulations and silence from the left, politicians doubt

If the president, Marine Le Pen and the LR were delighted with the victory of Paris this Wednesday night, several figures on the left are not expressed. Others recalled the social and environmental consequences of the World Cup in Qatar.

A classification for the final that is unanimous. After France’s victory against Morocco on Wednesday night, the Blues were widely congratulated by the political class and set sail for Sunday night.

“Thank you Les Bleus! Now the Cup!” Launched Emmanuel Macron, a great soccer fan on his Twitter account.

“On the way to the coronation”, welcomes Le Pen

The president, who traveled to Qatar on Wednesday night to attend the match, also congratulated Rabat, judging that the Moroccans have “marked the history of football.”

The same story by Marine Le Pen who congratulated “the entire team and its coach for this sporting achievement and this collective performance that are the pride of the French.”

“Road to the coronation!” The patron saint of RN deputies launched again on the social network.

“Masterful” blues for Ciotti

“WE ARE IN THE FINAL!! Congratulations to our scorers, Hernández and Kolo Muani. Hugo Lloris, our masterful goalkeeper and captain once again!” judged Eric Ciotti, the new president of the Republicans since Sunday.

The deputy for the Alpes-Maritimes, however, expressed his disapproval after the skirmishes in Nice, denouncing “unbearable violence”. There were 115 arrests across the country. A 14-year-old boy died in Montpellier, hit by a vehicle.

“An incredible trip”, greets Roussel

The joy was also palpable in Fabien Roussel, a great soccer fan.

“After 2018, 2022! Second consecutive final, congratulations to the Blues. And congratulations to the Moroccans for this match and this incredible journey,” the former communist candidate announced.

The parliamentarian, a member of Nupes, is however an exception in his own field. While La France Insoumise had called for a boycott of the World Cup to denounce the human rights situation in Qatar and its environmental impact, Jean-Luc Mélenchon remained silent, as did his lieutenant Alexis Corbière, who had repeatedly questioned the government about the topic.

François Ruffin, for his part, watched the matches of the French team “without panache” while he greeted “the happiness” brought “to the French on foot” this Wednesday on RTL.

“Macron VRP of Qatar”, laments the pattern of environmentalists in the Assembly

The group paid tribute Wednesday afternoon to the 6,500 workers who died on World Cup construction sites.

The Socialists were hardly more prolific. Neither Olivier Faure, the head of the Socialists, nor Boris Vallaud, who leads the group in the National Assembly, reacted.

“Fortunately, the French team carries the image of France above@EmmanuelMacron who is the VRP of Qatar. #franciamoroccosaid Cyrielle Chatelain, chair of the environmental group in the National Assembly.

“We are all behind (Les Bleus) for the final. And like me, you can boycott the games but celebrate the victories,” said Marine Tondelier, the new head of the movement.

The president will travel to Qatar again on Sunday for the final between France and Argentina.
