RN deputies will file a complaint for defamation, after the Nazi salute made in the hemicycle of the National Assembly on July 12 by Rémy Rebeyrotte (LREM) to the attention of one of their own, AFP learned Tuesday from the far-right group. The leader of the RN deputies, Marine Le Pen, made this announcement during the conference of presidents of the Assembly in the morning.
The member received a call to order
Last week, she had demanded a sanction by the Assembly of the Macronist deputy. During a vote on the health bill, where the majority was beaten, “a big guy from the RN got up doing the Nazi salute” at the back of the spans, Rémy Rebeyrotte assured AFP . The parliamentarian from Saône-et-Loire then mimicked the gesture, telling him that “we must not do that”. No visual evidence of such a Nazi salute by an RN deputy has been found.
Rémy Rebeyrotte received a call to order on Monday from the President of the Assembly Yaël Braun-Pivet (LREM). This is the first level of sanction provided for within the institution, which was denounced by several elected RNs who considered it insufficient.
Aurore Bergé asked him for “an unconditional public apology”
The simple call to order is the only sanction that Yaël Braun-Pivet could pronounce without the opinion of the office of the Assembly, a sort of board of directors. The management of the LREM group also heard Rémy Rebeyrotte on Monday, and its president Aurore Bergé asked him for “an unconditional public apology”.
