CALL FOR UNION
Former minister Christiane Taubira, candidate “envisaged” for the presidential election of April 2022, estimated Wednesday that the “convergences” ideological on the left “are sufficient to allow us to govern together five years”, despite the divisions displayed at this stage in the countryside.
“On the left, our convergences are sufficient to allow us to govern together for five years,” she said in a column published by Le Monde, calling again on the other left candidates “for a new collective adventure”, “a new episode of our humanist epic “.
According to the former Minister of Justice under François Hollande, the forces of the left, today fragmented between several candidates for the Elysee, are “linked by a collective destiny which transcends personal vicissitudes”.
For her, “there is no lack of convergences”, “even with nuances”, in particular on “the climate shock”, “public services” or even “school”, she judged, “despite a propensity proven to invent insurmountable quarrels between us “.
However, Ms. Taubira did not deny “the ideological differences” that exist on certain subjects on the left, including the “relationship to the European Union” and “the debate on energy sources” which “cannot be evacuated. “. But “of these disagreements, how many are insurmountable?”, She wondered, again believing that a primary is necessary “to decide on these big issues”.
