Controversial statement by Macron.  The politician defends his opinion

President Macron reiterated that the French must “fully accept” his statement, made in the daily newspaper Le Parisien for three days, in which he said he wanted “strut unvaccinated“Those who consider him ‘irresponsible’ and who are not his citizens.

Being a citizen means that you have rights and duties. These are duties in the first place (…). The President stressed that the concept of freedom that some of our compatriots are waving today, saying: “I have the freedom not to be vaccinated,” stops where the freedom of the other is restricted, and where the life of the other is threatened.

The president’s words in an interview in “Le Parisien” sparked harsh criticism from the opposition, including presidential candidates, who strongly distanced themselves from the head of state’s words. The head of the National Union described Macron, Friday, as a “fire-mania” that is dividing the nation.
